I seem to recall a linux command line wave player -- wavp, or
waveplay, or something like that? Does that ring any bells with
anybody?
Alternatively, has anyone tried to build the *bsd audioplay package on
linux?
Last time I needed to play a wav, I just used cat. I think it was to
/dev/audio or /dev/dsp, I forget which.
These days you should be using a program like 'aplay'. /dev/dsp is an
obsolete interface, using it will invoke (at least one) compatibility
layer, and what's more it can't handle different kinds of wav files like
ALSA's aplay command can.
