Edwin, There should be quite a few documents on the net describing /dev/dsp on Linux (try putting /dev/dsp in quotes when Googling). It's a relatively new implementation in Cygwin, however, and apparently wasn't around when <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-specialnames.html> was written... It should, most likely, be added. FYI, /dev/dsp is a.k.a /dev/sound and /dev/audio.
