What do you mean?
Here are the syscalls in the program:

    r[2] = syscall(SYS_open, "/dev/audio", 0xa40ul, 0, 0, 0);
    // r[2] is in the descriptor passed to SYS_poll
    r[15] = syscall(SYS_poll, 0x2001dde8ul, 0x4ul, 0x8ul, 0, 0, 0);
    r[18] = syscall(SYS_readv, r[2], 0x20dc13c0ul, 0x1ul, 0, 0, 0);
    r[19] = syscall(SYS_read, r[2], 0x20dbefe0ul, 0x20ul, 0, 0, 0);
