Re: awe64 not initializing on 2.2.2

["Michael B. Trausch" <mtrausch@wcnet.org>]

Some .WAV files (most notably any that were introduced in the Windows 95
era) don't play at all-- they're just garble.

And many, if they're not garble, they play at 1/2 the speed of normal
playback.  Solution:  Get a program that supports these files.

I'm not sure where to look, but I'm sure that Freshmeat wouldn't be a bad
place to start.
