Help, no sound, no alsa or oss

Hi guys,
I've trawled through the archive, can't find the answer.
I've compiled Ogle, and video plays ok, at 25 fps, but
no sound.

My Linux system is my own custom distro, really tiny,
runs totally in a 64M ramdisk.
The distro is called "Puppy" and is to be found at
http://www.goosee.com/puppy

Puppy just uses the sound drivers supplied with the
kernel, and sound works fine, except for Ogle.
I looked in oglerc and inserted <path>/dev/dsp</path>
in the <drivers> section for sound, but makes no 
difference.

When I play a video, the ac3 stream comes up, but
there is an error message:
ERROR [ogle_audio] odelay fail, falling back to clock sync
....or words to that effect.

So, is there some secret to it? how do I get sound to go
to /dev/dsp?
Anyone got a suggestion?

Regards,
Barry Kauler
