There is a package could sbutil containing "awedio" and "mixer". With
these I succesfully played various *.wav files. Its a small but rather
useful package
I don't know the original site from which I've got it but those
interested can find it on my ftp-server:
ftp://ftp.ping.net.au/pub/unix/audio/sbutil.tar.gz
Hope this helps
