no i cannot.
in fact even
cat techsound.au > /dev/audio
gives no sound.
before it gave the scratchy sound.
now when i did modprobe snd-powermac to see if i can hear the scratchy sound again, the machine froze, preventing me from saving the output of the lists of packages installed.
rest assured the standard packages are installed for squeeze. this is a kernel problem not a problem with not having userland packages installed for particular audio codecs :)
