You have background processes eating analog audio and video and
producing recordings for some users. While another one may be logged in
GNOME or KDE doing something else.

In the bright new world you described as soon as the human logs in
device access is stolen from everything/one else. Of course I may have
misunderstood the explanation but it seemed to be there is one exclusive
user of audio devices at any time, the active desktop session (whatever
that is going to be, since people are working to make multi-head X a
reality)
