I have a similar issue with POS running etch, however i decided that it wasn't 
a bug, but a feature, as it means that if i browse the web while running 
amarok, i don't get talking emoticon adds and other annoyances interrupting 
the desired sound.

I was going to "fix" it, but have decided that it is better off "broken"

Interestingly etch is the only distro i have used so far that has produced 
this issue.

I'd like to know if there was a way to switch on the media player sound, and 
more importantly switch off everything else at whim.

 Sounds are partially working on this feisty install.  Amarok goes great 
 so at least I know that I have codecs for mp3 files and that the onboard 
 sound is working in some way. 
 
 I have installed via automatix all the available multimedia codecs, 
 mplayer and firefox plugins, and non-free audio and dvd codecs. 
 
 Yet any random youtube video has no sound, nor do I hear anything if I 
 go to system settings > sound system and click the "test sound" button, 
 where I have tried either ALSA or auto detect as the audio device. 
 
 Any tips on how to properly test and resolve this would be appreciated.
 
 Cheers,
 Roger
