I have a Toshiba Portege 610CT, which to my knowledge has a ESS688 sound chip that should be SoundBlaster compatible. I tried different setups of the kernel including IRQs 5 and 7, but when sending

kinetic% file audio.au audio.au: Sun/NeXT audio data: 8-bit linear PCM [REF-PCM], mono, 11127 Hz

this file to /dev/audio I get short bursts of noise followed by a short pause and this repeats. In the pauses

Sound: DMA timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error?

is issued to the console.

This is starting to become frustrating!

What am I doing wrong?
