Hi Cygwin Team As reply for my Post: aplay (audio) support for cygwin - solution I got the hint to: " Install the Cygwin packages 'sox' and 'sox-fmt-*' "
But installation of these sox packages is broken! I tried it on 3 computers and i have successfull installed Cygwin many times before. Error Message: "Download incomplete! Try agian? Yes/No" (at 99%) Retry does not fix it. my 3 Windows Computer, all Cygwin 1.7.28 - 32 bit: a) Windows XP, 32bit b) Windows 7 - 64bit, 1 year old installation of cygwin c) Windows 7 - 64bit, 1 week new installation of cygwin - different location I tried different german ftp*.de servers - same problem. Always broken at 99%. Never had this problem before! On Computer (b) I somehow made the package install: After some retries with different servers I got a warning of an older setup.ini and I could install it. But after (export AUDIODRIVER=ao ; play ding.wav) I see messages indicating successfull playing and application is waiting the time the wav-file takes, but no sound. But I can hear the sound using VLC-win32 or WindowsMediaPlayer. Of course I tried different wav files.
