$10 says you have artsd running. You can disable it in the KDE control
panel. artsd tries to play a sound, finds someone else is using /dev/dsp
and waits until it is free. That's the moment when a song has just
finished, artsd grabs the /dev/dsp and when xmms tries to reopen it,
finds that it's busy.
