Thanks for the reply. I will give wxHaskell a shot for the audio. Any ideas on how to resolve #2?
Finally, I have started getting this error every time I do a cabal install now: Setup.hs:1:8: Could not find module `Distribution.Simple': Use -v to see a list of the files searched for. 2. What should I do to get cabal to start installing stuff again?

Can you run 'ghc-pkg check' and email the list the output?

ghc-pkg check
Okay! Now let us know what the result of "ghc-pkg list directory" is. I'm expecting you have a user installation of the "directory" package, which is shadowing the system-wide install, which breaks all of the packages that are built against the system-wide version. We can remove the use install of "directory", but that will require transitively removing all of your user packages which you've installed against your user version of "directory". This shouldn't be too bad. Antoine

Yeah, I did try to install the directory-1.1.0.0 thingy, which was a pre-req to something else I needed.... I think that is when the problems started. Here is the output....
