Glad to hear you got the MPEG working!
What primitive is failing? You can look a line or two down in the
debugger to see which one...
Nhe /dev/dsp messages should probably be removed, or at least toned down
somehow. It is precisely because you don't have a sound card that it
happens. Also, the retries really are worthwhile -- for many drivers,
only one guy can use the soundcard at a time, and so a retry might
manage to open the device when a previous try failed!
