i believe i've figured out the problem.  it's this configuration
setting:
    # init the mixer on startup? Voxware only.
    MixerInit	"no"			

not only does this cause the mixer to not be initialized at
startup time, but it disables all mixer "set" operations.

surely this isn't intentional.  is it?  (see the "leave_mixer" boolean
in auvoxware.c)
