Problems with OSS

[Simon Burton]

you probably need all three of these:
     ret=ioctl(dspfd[dev],SNDCTL_DSP_SETFMT,&format); assert(!ret);
     ret=ioctl(dspfd[dev],SNDCTL_DSP_STEREO,&stereo); assert(!ret);
     ret=ioctl(dspfd[dev],SNDCTL_DSP_SPEED,&srate); assert(!ret);
with
     int format=AFMT_S16_LE;

and stereo=1
and srate=44100
