I'm suprised someone actually uses artsd. As a fellow KDE3 user on 9-CURRENT
(on beefy hardware btw), I didn't have this issue because I always disable
artsd because I don't want sound notifications. As long as people are using
KDE3 I don't think it will die because people just like you will find the
problem(s) and fix it.
That said, I couldn't reproduce the problem (artsd works fine if I enable it).
