if you need sound in a hurry, use the system call:

system("playaiff audiofile.aiff&");

that will run a program that plays sound... non-blocking because of the
&... depending on your hardware, you can have a whole bunch of these
players going at the same time...

but that's not very safe and doesn't afford much control. we do have a
openSource library developed at the university of michigan that is
designed for sound in virtual environments ( with C++ API). you can get
more information by contacting rtecco++at++umich.edu

or you could read up on the SGI's digital media API.

hint: ours it easier....
