I have successfully used the SGI Audio Library which is part of the Digital
Media Development libraries to add sound to graphics applications including
Performer applications. I built a library that includes 3D and stereo effects.
The best way is to create a separate audio rendering process to which you send
commands. This allows you more control to adjust volume, pitch etc. on the fly
than the simple "system" command.

Hope it helps.
