Public bug reported:
Hi,
I've come across a very strange bug:
- WORKS: Playing sound from commandline with /usr/bin/mplayer -ao pulse -vo
null alarm_clock_short.ogg
- WORKS: Playing youtube videos or jango.com flash streaming music either in
firefox or qupzilla
- WORKS (when no other sound is being played): Setting cron to play a sound
every minute/hour (with the exact same mplayer command as above)
- WORKS: Playing youtube videos or jango.com sound AND, at the same time, the
mplayer commandline *from a terminal*
- DOES NOT WORK: Playing youtube videos or jango.com sound AND, at the
same time, running the mplayer commandline *from cron*
There's no error in the logs, either from cron or from redirecting the
output of mplayer or anywhere else...
