Hi, while I agree with you that we are left without a choice in cases such as firefox, I disagree that this is a firefox problem. The problem is definitely in timidity as it hooks I guess directly to alsa and blocks any other application. There were suggestions made to use jack and when working with music (timidity) you probably will have other benefits by using jack. As of your remark - you stopped timidity - did you disable autostart before rebooting. Chances are high you didn't and it autostarted blocking your device again. In /etc/default/timidity # uncomment to override enabling triggered by availability of timidity-deamon TIM_ALSASEQ=false regards
