2006/8/4, Florin Andrei <florin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:> Somehow XMMS and Firefox (or rather Firefox media plugins) seem to> compete over sound resources.> What's the cause and how can I fix it? The reason is that Flash and xmms both use old OSS for sound, whichallows only one app to access the soundcard at a time. Configure yourXMMS to use alsa and start firefox inside an aoss-environment with thecommand "aoss firefox" instead of plain "firefox". And bug the authors of every app that is still using OSS as default on linux...
