Are these resolved now? I have built 3 or 4 Halloween-related audio projects on Arduino using Adafruit's wav shield and the somo-14d module but they sure are a pain to work with. I would love to do my next project on the pi but was sitting on the sidelines waiting for the early glitches to work themselves out.

My understanding is that the Pi lacks real audio hardware on the analog output. For audio heavy projects you should consider a USB sound card.
