Hi Dave,

yes, /dev/dsp seems to be broken.
short wav-files are silent, long ones (> 2sec) are ok (hearable).

    1st sox problem:
    in Cygwin 1.7.28 sound is broken. (sox + play)
    I followed all hints as reply to my first post last week.

    $ play blip.wav
    blip.wav:
      File Size: 1.33k     Bit Rate: 94.4k
       Encoding: Unsigned PCM
       Channels: 1 @ 8-bit
    Samplerate: 11025Hz
    Replaygain: off
       Duration: 00:00:00.11
    In:100%  00:00:00.11 [00:00:00.00] Out:1.25k [======|======]       
Clip:0
    Done.
    ==> BUT I DONT HEAR ANYTHING, but same file works with other windows
    players (==> soundcard + driver + speaker = ok).

I've been able to reproduce this using very short wav files (less than 2
seconds in duration); if I use a longer file then it seems to work OK.
Please could you try again with a longer wav file and report how you get
on.

This may be a Cygwin problem (rather than an issue with sox itself), as
piping the wav file to /dev/dsp has the same result, i.e. short wav files
are not heard.

Cheers, Dave.
