Somehow XMMS and Firefox (or rather Firefox media plugins) seem to compete over sound resources. If I start XMMS and then, say, go to YouTube to watch a video, there's no sound from the browser. I have to kill XMMS, browse again, then it works. I am under the impression that it only happens with Flash movies, but those are anyway the only ones that play directly in the browser - for the other formats I use the MediaPlayerConnectivity plugin for Firefox and configured it to launch Xine for WMV, Qt and Real movies. What's the cause and how can I fix it? Fedora Core 5 ALSA-1.0.11 XMMS-1.2.10 Firefox-1.5.0.4 Flash-7.0r63 -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
