[Openal] hello world alut program,fnctl:invalid argument

[zhengzhi]

the problem isn't OpenAL or SDL . i used to download oss driver from the www.opensound.com , and install it , because the sound driver comes from FreeBSD kernel  dose not come with  the utility "ossmix" which can change sound  volume in the command line.

after disabling  the downloaded OSS driver ("soundoff")
and loading the driver comes from the FreeBSD kernel  ("kldload snd_driver")
,
mplayer dose not  have promble with SDL now  and the game "trigger " dose not have problem with OpenAL too. 

The problem is   the wrong sound driver.
