Ok, so the sndio output doesn't work for you either?

For OSS, which audio device do you have? I don't have /dev/dsp, perhaps 
/dev/audio?

With /dev/audio I can playback MP3's! They sound fine, although I get an 
initial clicking/dropping for a couple of seconds and occasional 
dropping. But that's progress...

Song information shows... although there are small refresh issues.

I am on i386. I also have a patch to test, but before I want to have it 
running "as you have". I thought you had a working version.

Debian used to have a working one...
