Sun removed audiocontrol in Solaris 9; you want to run:

/usr/dt/bin/sdtaudiocontrol

You'll need to invoke it by the full path since /usr/dt/bin isn't in the
default path.

f_l:  You should update the menu entry to run sdtaudiocontrol rather
than audiocontrol.

Greg:  Should /usr/dt/bin be in the default path?  Should we make a
symlink for sdtaudiocontrol somewhere that is in the default path?
