[osflash] play back sound from a byte array

[Brooks Andrus]

Yah, one of the C++ in our shop wants to rewrite a C++ thick client in 
AS3, but a piece of the current client pulls down a live audio stream 
from an Asterisk telephony server. So the issue is the data is a stream 
of packets rather than a url to a file.

Writing the low level decoding isn't an issue, but finding a way to 
"trick" flash into treating raw bytes as sound is an issue. He's played 
around with the hack that's explored on flashcodersbrighton 
<http://www.flashcodersbrighton.org/wordpress/?p=9>, but the choppiness 
of playback is a show stopper.

If anyone is aware of optimizations or other techniques which would make 
this work, I'd be appreciative.
