Hi Elliot.
I'm running gnome default. Since this is my work machine I havent spent
a lot of time setting it up. Sound settings dont have any settings to do
as you describe.
The problem is caused by other applications grabbing the soundcard and
not letting go. This is the case with Firefox for example.
If I kill firefox and restart the problem is solved. At least I dont
have to reboot.
So for now Im ok.
I severely need to upgrade probably to ubuntu 7.
Thanks for your help.
Kind regards.
Luke.

Hi Luke,
If using KDE, in the system settings console you should be able to find
an icon or setting relating to sound or multimedia.
In there will likely be an 'auto-suspend' setting. I find that things
work well if I have the "auto suspend if idle after..." setting selected
as one second only.
See if that works (this, again is if you're using KDE - 'fraid I don't
know with other desktops).
Regards,
Patrick
