Is the sound choppy? Do you have a soundcard that can do hardware mixing?
I have one of those AC97 soundcards that do not mix sound by itself.
That's why I set up dmix in alsa. I had to make realplayer use aoss
in order to make it go through alsa and not through oss so I can hear
other sounds. After doing that, the sound was choppy (I was hearing
at chunks). The problem was the buffer_size property that was too
low. I changed that to "buffer_size 8192" and it works like a charm
now.
Hope it helps.
