When I get the new Pi, I am going to try it with a Braille display.
I think it is a volume problem.
Should have it this week, and I will keep you posted.

any thoughts on why the built in sound chip won't work?
USB isn't a problem, just curious as to why the onboard one won't do the job
since it's supposed to be multi-channel HD etc.  Or at least that is what I
am lead to believe...perhaps not.

I thought some other folks might want a copy of the file.
I just put it in my Dropbox folder, so I would wait an hour just to make
sure it is ready.

Had to use an external sound module got hold of a USB sound module for
around $6.00 from Amazon.
My buddy lost my Pi, so I am waiting for the Pi 2 to arive.
