I have the same problem running Maelstrom. The X terminal
from which I run the game reports frequently
"Mixer: Can't write to audio device: Resource temporarily unavailable".
This happens on my SB Live system but also on a different
machine with a different sound card, so I believe it's not
a problem with the SB Live. I haven't solved it so far.
