  you cannot cat wav file to /dev/dsp.

  try wavplay (wplay?) or some other tools to play sound...

  cat works only if the format of the sound is 'native' to dsp - try cat
</dev/dsp>rrr.au to record (use mixer to select recording source and
level) and then you can play it back using cat <rrr.au>/dev/dsp
