Sound in Basilisk II and SheepShaver in Ubuntu

By default, sound doesn't work in SheepShaver and Basilisk II in Ubuntu.

I'll add a note in the appropriate setup guides and sticky threads, but here's a general tip:

Basilisk II and SheepShaver use "dev/dsp" for sound, but this has been removed from Ubtuntu 10.10 (and other distros?), so to get sound working in the emulators, you need to run them with a padsp wrapper.

From terminal, just do something like this:

padsp Basilisk

Ensuring that padsp is installed (you can check the Ubuntu Software center if it is not).
