iceape locks up on some web sites

["Thomas H. George" <lists@tomgeorge.info>]

This is an occasional problem.  For most web sites iceape works
perfectly.

To identify the source of the problem I started iceape from a terminal
window and found failure to pre-load libaoss.so is part of the problem.

alsa-oss is installed and I re-installed it just to be sure.  Iceape
still starts with the following error messages:

ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libaoss.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.

Any suggestions how to fix this?
