Try disabling it and rerunning your tests. This would be consistent with the errors above as well. When pulse runs it takes over the sound device and it is unavailable for other uses. And it could be the pulse aware programs that work, the not pulse aware that don't. Worth a try at least. Don't see anything else obviously wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
