mozilla freezing when /dev/dsp busy

[Erik Steffl <steffl@bigfoot.com>]

  mozilla freezes from time to time when /dev/dsp is busy. It's quite
annoying becuase it makes it impossible to use mozilla while listening
to music (on the same computer). It seems like it freezes even if
there's no sound, at least no sound I could hear. I only know it's
/dev/dsp because when I stop xmms mozilla un-freezes.

  Netscape freezes as well but I always hear sound afterwards (when it
uhn-freezes) so that's understandable. It doesn't happen  very often
with netscape so I suspect that mozilla is trying to open /dev/dsp for
no good reason.

  is there a solution for this problem? (except of sound server)

  I already filed a bug...

  TIA
