Ok, so I dared to play a wav file via QSound and discovered via docs that it used "NAS". So I download and install NAS, turn on some daemon, play the example, etc. Run my program, still zippo. Do I have to click my heals 3x or something too?

I figure I can just use some kind of QApp call to system call a simple aplay if the QSound device isn't there. Does that sound reasonable? I also read that some people go to SDL, however that looks a little overly complicated to play a simple wav file.

Should I expect a better world of sound with the multimedia in 4.4?

I suppose you have to actually compile QSound while suitable NAS development headers being available. Qt's configure-script will output information whether NAS support will be enabled or not when you build Qt.
