> Which isn't the worst of it; the worst bit is XMMS refusing to play because something is "blocking" the sound card.
Email me personally, and I can guide you how to create the Dmix plugin and make XMMS, Mplayer, and all ESD and Gstreamer apps to work together. This dmix plugin should fix about 60% of all sound apps on Unix through its mixer, but don't expect ALL of them to work. However, I can help out with the most used apps, so please email me and I will guide you.
