Comment (by lennart):
Yes this is a race condition. There is no proper access scheme for the
bell events. I think the logic is that the last program asking for it gets
the bell events. So if you load PA before compiz then compiz will get
those events. If you then reload the m-x-b then it will get those events.
But tbh i don't really think this needs to be fixed. The current scheme is
good enough.
Again, the right place to handle this event is probably the WM, not PA.
(that's because the WM needs to implement visual bell) That's why we don't
load the module by default in PA.
