Comment:
The error is a result of a conflict in accessing /dev/dsp.  A simple workaround
is to switch to ALSA by installing the libSDL1.2debian-alsa package.  For Ubuntu
5.10, this is sufficient.  For Ubuntu 5.04, you may still encounter errors, in
which case, you may want to copy
/usr/share/doc/libasound2/examples/asound.conf_dmix to /etc/asound.conf and
restart ALSA to take advantage of the dmix solution used in 5.10.
