Well, nm on this issue.  There seems to be an issue with the sound card
when multiple apps attempt to use it.  The startup program(wolf)
actually calls a second program(either wolfsp or wolfmp) depending on
whether you want to play single player campaign or multi-player
frag-festing.  Since the first application(wolf) has the audio device
open, the second application(wolfsp) cannot access it(hence the failure
to open).  Running the wolfsp application by itself from a terminal
actually works and the game is quite fun.

This would seem to be related to my audio device/driver(OSS?).  Any
other thoughts?
