The more general problem is that most sound servers suck, and if I'm
already accessing the sound device (e.g.: playing oggs in xmms), I
can't play an additional alert.
What's the recommended soundserver to use in this case?
I'm apparently running i810_audio, ac97_codec, and soundcore, and
possibly esound. I really haven't kept up with this.
Peace.
