 wesnoth does work with alsa pretty well. Did you check with other SDL
applications wether they have the same issue for you? It seems you
stumbled into a misconfigured SDL setup - which is out of the scope of
the wesnoth package.

 Please take a look at the output of "reportbug --template libsdl1.2debian"
for which music package you have installed. If you use alsa it should
list libsdl1.2debian-alsa.

 Thanks,
Rhonda
