[ltp] flash plugin (netscape/mozilla), alsa and snd-card-cs461x

[D. Sen]

Hi,

I am using ALSA (0.5.12a driver, 0.5.10b libarary, 0.5.10 utilities) on 
my IBM Thinkpad T21 (using the snd-card-cs461x drivers). A problem 
occurs when I am runing an audio application (like xmms or realplayer) 
and concurrently try to open an URL with flash content on my web browser 
(either netscape or mozilla). The browser hangs requiring a kill and a 
restart.

Has anyone else encountered this problem and know a work around for it? 
Will the ALSA development release solve the problem?

By the way, I dont recall encountering the problem when running the OSS 
driver in the 2.4.x kernel. I switched to ALSA because a few of my audio 
applications were unsuccessful in attempting to open the /dev/dsp in 
RDWR mode.

Thanks,
DS
