Sound in MOL 0.9.68

I've been running MOL 0.9.65 on BenH's 2.4.19 kernel for a while, and I
recently upgraded to 2.4.20-ben10. At the same time, I noticed that MOL
was now at 0.9.68, so I downloaded and compiled that as well. Everything
works great, with the exception of sound. I put the new MOL Audio
extension in the OS 9 Extensions folder and rebooted and all, and in
/etc/mol/molrc.macos I set sound_driver to dsp, on /dev/dsp1(which is
currently a set of speakers attached to an iMic). No luck. I open up
XMMS, and it plays on this device just fine, though, so it's not a
problem with the USB audio setup. I then try setting it to esd
on/dev/dsp (which is using the dmasound_pmac OSS driver), and that
doesn't work either. Nor does turning off esd and trying OSS on/dev/dsp.
In all cases, no startboing plays, and when I go into the Sound control
panel, playing alert sounds doesn't work. (MOL Audio is selected as
Output.) The only application that has no sound is MOL. Is this a bug in
the latest version, or did I just miss something in a config file
somewhere? No sound-related error messages pop up either during the
compile or startup.
