I wish I understood this sound setup - I can't make head nor tail of 
it.  HardDrake seems to say that I am running emu10k2 with OSS.  When 
I look at Services in MCC I see that alsa is available, although 
stopped.  I expected that to be the place to disable artsd, but 
obviously I was wrong, so how do I do that?  Is it a 'service stop' 
command?
