I have a problem which may be related - if I use splay or xanim, it usually works the first time, but trying it more than once during a single login usually results in /dev/dsp already in use But it's not.. :-) I thought at first something with my sound was screwed up, but xmcd still works, but anything going through dsp fails (splay, xanim, gqmpeg etc).
