I have an application which wants to directly manipulate the AUDxxx registers to make sounds. For functional timing reasons the audio.device will not do what I want. Having written the (seemingly quite simple) code to set up pointers, volume, DMA counts, etc. I find that the audio is not reliably turned on. Yes, I know about enabling the DMA. Without getting into gruesome detail here, does anyone know of hardware or software required magic to make the audio channels work right? I tried disassembling the audio.device but it does Truly Bizarre Things. Could somebody be turning offmy DMA for me? Is the hardware manual lying? All help appreciated. Working code fragments especially nice. Regards & Thanks Chris Anderson contex!chris@uunet.uu.net Xyvision, Inc. Wakefield, MA
