Well, I'm about to give up on this! I have gone back to the onboard soound. I cannot get anything but CD audio with ALSA no matter what I try. With OSS using sndconfig, I can get CD audio plus audio from some of the games. I still can't play a WAV file in XMMS. But I guess that's the best I can hope for right now. If anyone has any ideas, I'd still love to hear them, but I don't think I'm going to actively pursue this issue anymore (for now). Thanks.
