Hi all-
Another tidbit on NSSound (or perhaps sound in general)… laptops will sleep the
sound hardware when possible, and there is a brief delay when waking things
back up. I have found that the playing of a silent sound at the launch of my
app is helpful to wake things up and avoid the delay

AVAudioPlayer is simple enough that I would recommend not

Don't let the title fool you. I make plenty of references to Mac for
AVFoundation, and approach OpenAL from a cross platform perspective.

Back in the Director/Shockwave days, we had to write our own sound management
routines.
Preloading the sound, or set of sounds was one of the important things we had
to do before playing them or they will be fetched off the disk and loaded into
memory when they are needed.
