AU sound library (Michael Kostylev) (Developers)

No problem with WSS. The problem is with AU. In fact, I originally was looking for your ancient port, but I wasn't able to find it on the internet (everyone was just talking about it, dead links and no binary), but I've found (thanks to Zyzzle) Kostylev's version on Rayer's site where the only documentation for it was a few lines in Czech. I don't speak the language, but "Nová verze 1.3.0 používá knihovnu au (parametr -ao au:volume=xx), která si zvukovku detekuje automaticky" was very straightforward, so I tried it and it works, but, though there are available docs about the possible arguments for -ao wss:, there is nothing else about -ao au:. I tried the WSS switches and also tried to reconstruct the logic of possible switches (if it has ':volume=nn' instead of ':vol=nn' then it might have ':device=nn' instead of ':dev=nn'and so), but, naturally, it didn't lead to any working result. If Rayer hadn't mentioned -ao au:volume=nn, I wouldn't even know about that one. But it's important, as WSS doesn't even work on my chipset. Pádár Attila's drivers and all its successors do (HX.DOS only uses my lineout jack though) and there is an experimental extended version of Judas that I tested and works (when the HW is already initialized by something from the Pádár-line of drivers), but only for the lineout jack, and TomCat's beeper-speaker initializer works perfectly. WSS doesn't.

DOS isn't about why. It's about why not.
