Runs fine EXCEPT no sound

Selecting any of the FreeAudio drivers does NOT work. Note that local CFG file says FreeAudio for the driver.
Please, I see all the posts on Pulseaudio "wrappers" (whatever that is).
For us Linux dummies, please provide EXACT steps to get an Audio Driver to work with Exchalon Book 2 with Linux Mint 10.
Note, all other sounds on my system are OK.
