I've noticed that if you use -t vfat with vfat, fat and msdos loaded, it will
choose which one it needs. At least I think so. The problem with loop could
be the order that it is being loaded in relation to other modules. If you
have /usr/bin/play from sox, try play foo.wav and see if you get sound as
root. If not, something is wrong with the sound modules you are loading for
the sound card.
