Chalk this up to misinterpretation of the man page for ogg123. I revisited this issue with a clear head and the advice of jggimi.

The ogg123 documentation lists the sndio driver options as:
Quote:
sndio OpenBSD SNDIO live output driver. Options:

dev:value
Specifies audio device to use for playback.
I assumed that the device was rsnd or snd and the value was the number instance, and tried the ways shown above. Totally wrong.

In my case, with my headset detected and attached as /dev/audio1, the correct syntax was:
Code:
ogg123 -d sndio -o dev:rsnd/1 http://to.stream.ogg
FWIW, I could not get the sndio driver to use 'snd' devices as described in the sndio documentation, only the raw devices 'rsnd'.

Thanks jggimi for your help with this.
