Well, the difference between the flash plugin and most other programs that play sounds is that it only supports OSS not alsa or arts. So the problem is that you either have OSS emulation disabled in the kernel or the soundcard only supports one stream at a time and another application is using the soundcard (if you are using KDE that program is artsd)

Assuming you are indeed using KDE it can be fixed in Konqueror by checking the "Use artsdsp..." in the netscape modules configuration tab in Konquerors properties. For a general fix see the alsa documentation on how to enable dmix for OSS emulation too. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
