For normal OSS audio drivers this is what should be in the oglerc:

  <audio>
    <device>
      <driver>oss</driver>
      <path>/dev/dsp</path>

This is not a fatal error but you won't get as good sync without odelay.
Normally this error is because your audio driver doesn't support odelay,
but since you don't get any sound at all this might just be a chain reaction.
If you run 'ogle --debug' you will get more information.
