Did you remember to set the sound mux (controlled off of one of the
PIAs) to select cartridge sound? Look at bit 3 of PIA 1's control
registers. Also take a look at bit 3 of PIA 2's port B control register
(FF23), the six bit sound enable.

On an unrelated note, the map type is set from one of the sam flags:
access of FFDE selects 32K RAM/ROM
access of FFDF selects 64K RAM
There was also mention made of BASIC 1.0 and 64K chips. There are some
flags that have to be set on the SAM to select the RAM chip type,
presumably for refresh:
FFDA FFDB M0
FFDC FFDD M1
M1 M0
0 0 4K
0 1 16K
1 0 64K
Anyone know what bit 2 of PIA 2 port B is used for?
