Re: Dumb Cuckoo (again)

Hello,

I removed Cynthiune and built, install it again removing previously 
this build arg:
	disable-waveout=yes

In theory, I should now at least be able to listen to wav sounds 
within Cynthiune, but I still cannot add 'cuckoo.wav' from menu or 
with DND method to the songs list, despite the fact I can set it as 
default app within the Inspectors/Tools panel.

Regards,
Patrick
