Have you read doc/sound-usage.txt in dosemu source tree already?

I've got sound effects working perfectly about everywhere (dosemu 1.3,
kernel 2.6-test9 with ALSA's OSS emulation). Only in some games (ie.
Death Rally) does the sound still lag a bit, but not a big deal.
The biggest problem I am yet to overcome is the MIDI stuff. This is
actually not a dosemu problem, but how do you people get TiMidity synth
working WITH SoundBlaster sound effects at the same time? This needs
some mixing, of course, but I haven't studied ALSA enough yet to do
that. Can this be somehow done with ALSA's dmix plugin, or do I need a
separate sound server of some kind?
