 This is only on when there is no soundplayer (e.g., aplay, ossplay,

 won't be executed.

 When I have no soundplayer installed, it still might happen that I have other 
 applications installed that might want to use sound, right? So it is an issue 
 if Gajim opens the sound device and doesn't even let me disable that.

If you did not try this version, then don't argue this.

gajim does not own OSS device during the whole session. If the device
is in use, gajim does not plays sound; if the device is not in use,
gajim only opens the device for 1 or 2 seconds.

Which is *EXACTLY* the problem. If I start my movie player and someone sends me 
a message, I don't have any audio. Depending on how long the sounds is (4 
seconds are normal due to fade out), that's quite a long time for a single 
message. Having enabled sound for people signing on, I'm pretty much screwed if 
I ever want to use my soudcard for something besides Gajim …

So no, if there is no sound player that allows playing sounds with mixing, 
Gajim should not play any sounds.
