Between the fact ALSA dmix is well-supported, libao supporting the ESD and aRts audio mixers, and that cards that support hardware mixing are common and cheap, holding onto the audio device when paused should no longer be an issue. Linux audio drivers are finally getting out of the stone age, and I don't feel like coding in workarounds to encourage them to stay there. -- Joe Wreschnig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
