I've installed Audio Zap and am tinkering with some WAV files.  What
I'm hearing on the GS end, though, is mostly snow and noise.

I adjust the frequency to the frequency of the WAV (have tried this
with both 11000 Hz and 44100 Hz files, with the same results), and
while the distant sound of the original WAV seems to be barely
audible, it is all but completely flushed away by the noise.

Any suggestions?  Things I might be doing wrong?
