So I select reload audio drivers. This of course requires a reboot and then we're good for another few minutes until the audio driver/device becomes busy again.

The sound card config app is useless. Tell the user to ignore it.

1) Use lsof on /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p to see if anything is grabbing onto it.

2) Upgrade to Fedora 9
# rpm -Uhv fedora-release-9.0-2.noarch.rpm
# yum update

You may say "this is not an option" but there is no other way to get an updated driver for your system unless you want to manually install an F8 or F9 kernel (not recommended). Plus, PulseAudio (in F8 and now F9) may help alleviate his problem.

lsof find firefox got a hold of it. I killed all his firefox windows and then the audio app starts working again. So now, he can use his ip phone but he just can't browse while doing it. ??
