I was thinking the same thing. > Workaround: Compile alsa with oss-emulation support and set the sound I/O > method under Sound->Sound Server->Sound I/O in the control center to "Open > Sound System". [snip] Thanks for the workaround. Unfortunately it doesn't work for me. I tried this before with $artsd -a oss and tried it through the control panel as you suggested. I get a dialog box that says 'cpu overload, aborting', WTF! Since I have just started using alsa on this machine and the workaround does not seem to work, do you think it would be best to downgrade to alsa-0.5 or wait for artsd to be compiled with 0.9 support (if this is in fact the issue)? Also, maybe someone on the list has another idea? Joseph Schlecht
