[Glastonbury] Sound

[nick irwin]

Hello one and all,

I was wondering if anyone could help me with a sound issue I'm having.
I am running Mandrake 10.0, using the ALSA sound system on the 2.6 kernel. 
Sound is all fine and good except that when I start up a second x-windows 
session, no sound.
The arts sound daemon is being used, someone told me it was a bad thing to 
have running but I can't stop it being used without killing off sound 
altogether.

both accounts can use sound when they are the only ones running, but it seems 
that the first account that is logged into locks a file or resource and no 
other account can use the sound.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Cheers
