As people suggest, adding a & will make the command run in the
background, so the script will continue. However, running aumix in the
background is unlikely to work, because it is a console application.
Gmix can run happily in the background because it outputs to X mostly.
Hence this is more likely to do what you want:
#!/bin/sh
grip &
aumix

(I don't see why you needed the path for grip but not for aumix - I
suspect it will work without =)
