Getting sound out of Gnomad2?


Hello,

Working with Debian Etch 4.0, gnomad2 v2.8.8. Everything works fine (most of the time). I also get sound out of my system in amarok, I get system sounds, etc. So sound server (whichever that is, I believe both alsa and Y are loading) is working. I get sound from youtube videos in firefox (iceweasel actually), mplayer and realplayer both output sound.

Using the "play track" or "play playlist" feature in gnomad2 - sure enough, a screen comes up with previous/next buttons and a slider, the track title and remaining time etc., but no sound.

I've tried the --enable-sound switch on the command line, same result. I've also noticed the --espeaker=HOSTNAME:PORT switch, but I have no idea how to begin to find out the port number I should be using.

Any thoughts, anyone?

FWIW, here's the relevant output from lsusb:
Code:
Bus 002 Device 014: ID 041e:4110 Creative Technology, Ltd Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra
Many thanks!

EDIT:
Ok, looking a bit further, the command-line options above on my end produce errors ("invalid option" followed by each letter of the option, even though I got them from the man page). But I also noticed the options are GNOME library options.

And I neglected to mention, this is under KDE 3.5.

Any thoughts you might have would be appreciated.

Thanks again
