Just remember, you will not hear Amiga sounds from Amithlon with supported audio hardware, you will only hear AHI sounds.

If you can hear the audio beep in AHI when testing, to hear Amiga sounds you need to use newbaer.lha from aminet. Read the directions for how to configure it with the audio device ID you have configured in AHI. You run this and it routes Amiga audio through the AHI system, giving you the audio the Amiga chips would normally produce. However, when it is running you won't get AHI audio, ie. games or tools that produce audio through the AHI system. Stop puhderbaer when you want to use AHI. Newbaer on Aminet is only an update to part of PuhDerBaer which should be on your SYS: vol from installing Amithlon (I think).

For my Soundblaster, the device ID in AHI is 0x1e0002 and I use 44100Hz Frequency.
You would run
baer 0x1e0002 44100
which would redirect Amiga generated audio to the AHI device 0x1e0002 @ 44100Hz.
Control-C to exit to allow AHI audio tools to run.
