How about lsof | grep /dev/snd I'm used to using OSS, which usually means /dev/dsp, it seems that ALSA uses /dev/snd(or maybe another device..). I had a similar issue last night where the flash plugin in firefox prevented Cedega from being able to spit out sound and found it was using a device in /dev/snd, once I stopped the flash plugin I got sound back(and even with the sound device in use, XMMS was able to play sound no problem and it is configured to use ALSA, as is Cedega). Worst case just run lsof | grep /dev that's how I found the issue last night, I wasn't sure what /dev device was in use. > mixer_app 10922 hardtolove 2u CHR 1,3 > 1604 /dev/null > escd 10926 hardtolove 0r CHR 1,3 > 1604 /dev/null These reference /dev/null which isn't related. nate
