I turned off any other apps that used sound, and things are working again (I also rebooted since last upgrades, so this might have helped too, as Schlueri suggested). I should have known this: I've been bitten by this probl one time too many already =/ I just didn't think my browser could be trying to play sounds. I also made sure esd is always running, just in case. BTW: I couldn't find configuration options to turn off accessibility stuff neither on Mozilla nor on Firebird (and neither on about:config page). How can I do it? Thks for the tip. Best, Andre -- Andre Oliveira da Costa
