Hi Dave,
yes, /dev/dsp seems to be broken.
short wav-files are silent, long ones (> 2sec) are ok (hearable).

1st sox problem:
in Cygwin 1.7.28 sound is broken. (sox + play)
I followed all hints as reply to my first post last week.
$ play blip.wav
blip.wav:
File Size: 1.33k Bit Rate: 94.4k
Encoding: Unsigned PCM
Channels: 1 @ 8-bit
Samplerate: 11025Hz
Replaygain: off
Duration: 00:00:00.11
In:100% 00:00:00.11 [00:00:00.00] Out:1.25k [======|======]
Clip:0
Done.
==> BUT I DONT HEAR ANYTHING, but same file works with other windows
players (==> soundcard + driver + speaker = ok).
I've been able to reproduce this using very short wav files (less than 2
seconds in duration); if I use a longer file then it seems to work OK.
Please could you try again with a longer wav file and report how you get
on.
This may be a Cygwin problem (rather than an issue with sox itself), as
piping the wav file to /dev/dsp has the same result, i.e. short wav files
are not heard.
Cheers, Dave.
