create beep sound from sound card but not from computer speaker??

[strancho]

hi guys:

i am rather new to C++.

By using beep(hz, duration), I figured out a way to drive computer speaker. However, my project requires me to create sound from the sound card. Do you happen to know how this works?

or is there a command like that?

I was going to generate it from wave file. However, it is just too cumbershome..
thanks for the help
