I did 2 things:
Unset XMMS to use realtime priority
Unapplied preemptive patch.
I don't know if one of those things really fixed anything,
But it works now, and I didn't have the time to expirment
with it.
Switching to X and back works fine, although I haven't tried MC's
screensaver.
I don't know if you use XMMS or not but perhaps that's on of the
things to try.
