(aumix, kmix etc.) It seems I solved the problem by disabling artsd alltogether and setting xmms to use alsa with device fixed to hw:0,1. For XMMS I have to turn on volume sliders Master and PCM. For sounds from Mozilla (mail notification) I also need to pull up the leftmost of the 4 sliders "VIA DX" something in alsamixer. And yes, I have the udev fix installed. Still I got one hang when running tux racer yesterday. Might be sound-related, don't know. No further keyboard hangs. Still this leaves me with a bad fealing re the stability of this distro. I guess there is still some work to be done before we reach the level of Windows XP (sigh).
