xmms equalizer doesn't

i have redhat 7.3 installation in which the xmms player plays fine but
the equalizer has never worked. i recently upgraded (re-compiled) the
xmms to version 1.2.9, which i believe is the most recent stable
version, in hopes of getting the equalizer to work, but it doesn't.

the little on button in the equalizer is highlighted but to no avail.

i am playing wav files unmolested that are stored on disk.

any pointers on this would be appreciated.

There is something seriously wrong, then. Redhat 7.3's xmms equalizer
worked just fine out of the box.

Start xmms in a command window and see what it says when you try to use
the equilizer.

I used the rpms but worked out of the box. Just downloaded and installed
some WinAmpEq and those work great too!

it says nothing when the equalizer is turned on or off, started or killed.

it does give this message when the song changes.
