I tried first creating it with just the first line, and then with the
surround lines as well (I'm using an SB Live!), and still nothing. I
still get the /dev/[sound/]dsp error and no sound. If I manually create
the dsp device (mknod dsp c 14 3), I get sound, but that's because the
OSS support loads and gives me sound. (doing a lsmod before and after
running the game, snd-pcm-oss is not loaded before running, but it IS
loaded after running.)

Is there anything else I can do? Is there a way to get some more verbose
log information out of UT so I can better try to troubleshoot what's
going on?
