A car has got four wheels, why can't you drive each wheel to a completely different place, at the same time? Why are the four wheels in sync? It doesn't matter what car you own, by design it's the same for all cars. A car with four wheels and four seats provides only one seat for a driver and only one steering wheel. As already pointed out, one sound server is able to access the device and several apps could access the sound server. Problem solved.
