I was rather disappointed to discover that sound doesn't seem to be supported by my 'new' Power Mac G4 with AGP graphics (which was a gift so I can't complain).

What work-arounds are there (if any)?

The specs say it has three PCI slots, so can I just plug in a SoundBlaster PCI card? What sound cards are supported?

@Andreas_Wolf
This may sound like a silly question, but I assume that the PowerMac G4's PCI slots are supported by MorphOS?

Thanks. One of the two PCI cards I had worked, so I now have sound
