Okay, so I may just have a compatibility issue w/v8, I suppose. The suggestions on external audio, etc., are great - and a future need for me for sure, but right now, I'd settle for a beep :) - as I'm having troubles (another post on Spec2) updating my display with a 'Correct' or 'Incorrect' - between normal refreshes... so I just wanted an audible beep to let me know things were working. I created a Logger class where I can log and see (in the log) that all the functional code is getting processed properly - I just can't seem to get it to the display.
I may try the FFI route - but it looks to be quite a bit more than I need right now. Is there a way to completely remove the PharoSound 'package'? It's possible, with me trying to figure out how to use it, I ran something that disabled it in my version. Reloading it didn't help, but perhaps if I could get it completely deleted? Thanks all!
