Sound Issues (Crackle) with Enemy Territory, Alsa-OSS and DMIX
Hi,
I have an onboard intel8x0, and alsa version 1.0.10. Everything is set up including dmix, i can run multiple xmms instances and everything works fine, both using alsa output and oss output ('aoss xmms').
The problem arises when i try to use Enemy Territory (any quake3 game for that matter), through aoss. I can only hear glimpses of sound and that crackles pretty bad.

After some more research I believe the problem lies in the fact that ET uses mmap'ing to access the OSS device files.
Any Ideas?
