Absolutely amazing!!! Not two minutes after sending the previous email

The machine had been essentially 'User space idle' for the previous
two hours. The screen saver had kicked in. Audio was running and the
machine was busy. I woke it up, gave xscreensaver my password, read
email, sent the previous mail, then picked up the telephone to make a
call. Not 2 seconds later the xruns occurred!

Bizarre!!!
