audio.device support in OS4?

[spirantho]

This thread does illustrate very well WHY Hyperion aren't in favour of WinUAE.
People will run AmigaOS 4 under WinUAE and when it doesn't work, they assume it's because OS 4 is bad, not because WinUAE is bad. I used audio under OS 4.0 on my A4000 I'm sure, using my Deneb and a cheap USB sound device.

Sorry, I wasn't targeting you for anything - you may not assume anything but others who read threads like this will do. This is precisely the deal I mean.

Is audio.device supported in OS4? Yes, it is. Had this been run on a real Amiga the question wouldn't have even come up. It all adds up to an undeserved negative perception of AmigaOS 4, when the fault is somewhere else.

My mistake about the sound card - I was forgetting that audio.device was a Paula thing and not AHI. Paula is definitely] supported in AmigaOS 4, though.

If you have a program (in this case the Paula driver) that runs fine on the real hardware, and with the same software fails under emulation, surely the fault has to be the emulation? You can't blame the software if it works fine on real hardware but doesn't work under emulation...
