Have you tried running the application under "padsp"? This sounds like
an old-style application that is trying to access /dev/dsp directly, but
that is no longer supported. "padsp" is a way to run old OSS
applications under PulseAudio. It has worked for me for some old Loki
games that I still like to play now and then.
