With ESD, the sound mixes properly, however. (it's KDE)

&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; hi guys, long time listener, first time caller
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; i'm real new to linux (real new), and i'm trying to get all settled
&gt; &gt; into a new mandrake install that my friend helped me get set up, but i
&gt; &gt; can't get multiple apps to share the sound card; as it stounds, if i'm
&gt; &gt; listening to music with xmms, all other system sounds (eg, from gaim),
&gt; &gt; get queued up, and play all at once whenever xmms stops.
&gt;
&gt; Are you using KDE (Mandrake default) or GNOME?  KDE uses a sound daemon
&gt; named artsd and I'm not sure I GNOME uses that too, or if GNOME still
&gt; uses esd.  Artsd is way better.
&gt;
&gt; If you are using artsd, make sure that you are using the artsd output
&gt; plugin to XMMS.  Artsd lets multiple clients connect and will mix the
&gt; output for you.
&gt;
&gt; &gt; i found this page here:

&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; but i tried that, and it doesn't seem to have worked.
&gt;
&gt; ALSA does have a similar feature, I believe, but you would be better off
&gt; using artsd instead.
