Very true. Currently any apps using an oss device loop continuously over
the first X seconds of the music. I really don't know how long X is,
probably the first 1 to 3 seconds. I usually end up having to kill the
software to get control back.

Lemme re-state that. I was under the impression that the only native
alsa application I had was XMMS w/xmms-alsa. I forgot about things like
aplay and the like. aplay also exhibits the same problems as the oss
apps above. But XMMS w/xmms-alsa work for the most part. See my previous
comments about skipping/faltering ... And I really need to test w/o
preempt.
