When I use artsdsp to run a program (small game) from a terminal everything works perfectly (also works from the "Run" dialogue) -- I can run juK etc. at the same time and sounds from both programs are heard. If I add an entry to for the game to the menu (artsdsp gamename) with menu edit however, the sound stutters badly. I don't have a clue why this happens. Does anyone have an explanation or cure.
