I don't know if it's actively wrong, but the "standard" way to do it is
to use the script in /dev/ calles MAKEDEV (or something like that..
you'll see it). Run "MAKEDEV audio".
You should look in the script to make sure that this is correct. It may
have a manpage as well.
A word of warning - by default, it makes the devices in your present
working directory, so be in /dev/ when you run it :)
