What I believe he means is something I've noticed too. When you are, let's say,
playing a movie, and some guy keeps IMing you... The movie is using the sound
card, and what ends up happening is after the movie ends, then you hear *pling*
*pling* *pling* *pling* pling* *pling* *pling* *pling* *pling* where *pling* is
the IM sound. I didn't have this problem on Alsa for RH7.2/RH8 when I built and
set it up myself following the directions on their site. 

One thing I noticed was that in the /etc/modprobe.conf, there was no OSS
compatibility stuff listed in there. I wonder if that is the cause. The reason
I wonder is because when I set up Alsa on my own, I put in the OSS
compatibility layer.

I noticed some stuff missing in /etc/modprobe.conf mentioned in
http://foolish.digitalinc.info/docs/alsa/ :

alias char-major-14 soundcore

and

alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss


I don't notice any of this stuff in /etc/modules.conf that was installed by Fedora.
