Hey Nevyn,

Your two options seem to be nas[1], or esound[2] which is packaged[3]
for cygwin  (a minimalist overview of getting esd to work is at:
http://www.liquid-reality.de/main/projects/esound .)

Haven't used either in the situation you describe, so best of luck :)


1. http://www.radscan.com/nas.html (windows binaries linked down the bottom)
2. http://www.tux.org/~ricdude/EsounD.html (website seems to be unmaintained)
3. http://cygwin.com/packages/esound/

Cheers,
Martin.
