The sndio output bundle still has some issues unfortunately. When you 
shutdown sndiod, OSS output bundle should just work. Or when you install
esound or arts, should also work, I tested with both.

All bundles but the WindowsMedia one, because the dependencies are 
not in the ports tree, should compile and work.

ADDITIONAL_OBJCFLAGS=-DMUSEPACK_API_126 gmake disable-windowsmedia=yes install

Since sndiod is the preferred way to go on OpenBSD, I still need to look at it.
First trying  to get the issues fixed that Philippe is reporting ;)

For me, Cynthiune doesn't freeze, I don't need to kill it with -9. 
Usually for me what I see is, that I hear no sound,
and it goes very fast through the mp3. Then it has the wrong bit rate and 
channels.

This debug output will hopefully go away soon, when I figured out, how
to make the sndio Bundle work correctly.

I also took them all from the ports tree, should be fine. What platform are you 
on?
I386 or maybe macppc?
