Don't know, but an even cooler thing would be if the sound drivers could handle both of them at the same time. I would REALLY like that. It's so anoying when you don't get the sounds from Licq while playing MP3s, and I always play MP3s... And it is doable, of course. We'll just have to bug someone for that... :-)
