No, nothing is using the card. At least nothing that shows up with
'ps -aux'. Tried it with XMMS on (not playing) and closed down, but no go
either way. I tried restarting the xserver, thinking that would kill off
any rogue process x processes (like realplayer, etc) that might be
running. Still no luck. Also, over the weekend I didn't use realplayer or
anything sound related except xmms.
