No sound in FuhQuake (Ubuntu 5.10 x86)

I'm having an issue with FuhQuake 0.31 Build 675 on Ubuntu 5.10, in which SNDDMA_Init fails for one reason or another. It either says:

"Could not toggle." (in-game console)
"/dev/dsp: Broken pipe" (terminal)

-or-

"Could not open /dev/dsp" (in-game console)
"/dev/dsp: Device or resource busy" (terminal)

I think the error message depends on the input and output resources defined in GNOME (Multimedia Systems Selector), but I can't seem to reliably reproduce either one with specific combinations. So far I'm using a stock Breezy setup with the exception of some additional Gstreamer stuff for non-free media formats. Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance.

It's because it's using OSS, and there's already a soundserver running. Try making it use that soundserver, or kill esd/arts.

And how is that done? I disabled the GNOME sound server for events, and the process list doesn't show esd running. Under the Multimedia Systems Selector, both input and output are set to OSS (I already tried ALSA but that didn't work either). It still tells me "Could not toggle."

Looking at it now, it seems Ubuntu doesn't actually use OSS (as I first thought), but rather ALSA's emulated implementation of it. Hope this might help.
