Update.
I got cubeb installed, tried to install node-cubeb via npm. Seemed to work, but
cubeb = require('cubeb')
Error: libcubeb.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Yeah, you probably need to either configure $LIBPATH to include /usr/local/lib (or wherever cubeb installed its libraries), or if you don't mind being intrusive, just # cp /usr/local/lib/libcubeb.so /usr/local/lib/libcubeb.so.0 /usr/lib/. Haven't used Ubuntu for a while so I'm not quite sure if and how it differs from Arch when it comes to finding shared objects, so let me know if neither of those works.
Ok. got it all hooked up. I tried to run the example in the readme (fixing a couple of variables refs but otherwise line for line), but the process just quit and that was it.
However, test/sine-tone worked, so thats good!
Yeah, in node the process dies if you don't have something to keep it alive, for example an HTTP connection or a timer, so you can probably just do setInterval(function(){}, 10000) to keep it from exiting.
I should fix the readme example. :D
