Oddly enough ... someone was having trouble getting sound working of FreeBSD as they dont have alsa at all apparantly.  Uncommenting oss in psclient caused it to crash... I on a stupid whim had him add


SndSys.Driver.OSS.SoundBufferms = 150

to psclient.cfg and then it started working...

don't know if it was related or not but perhaps its a temp fix for those totally out in the cold.

Make sure the oss driver is uncommented then add that line anywhere.

no problem! :D

Open the file psclient.cfg in a text editor.  Look for these two lines:

; Linux - OSS sound system

;SndSys.Driver = crystalspace.sndsys.software.driver.oss

A comment simply means that a character or two is placed in front of a line to disable it... it means the line is ignored by psclient.  To uncomment remove the ; from the 2nd line so that it looks like this:

; Linux - OSS sound system
SndSys.Driver = crystalspace.sndsys.software.driver.oss
