Hi, guys, in the last few days several people as well as myself have had 
problems with artsd locking /dev/dsp. When this occurs applications that 
try to access /dev/dsp are denied becuase it is in use by artsd. Im not 
fully sure if there is a way to chunk artsd and use alsa directly or not. 
Ideally, there should be a way to use those applications that dont access 
artsd to have access to /dev/dsp. Maybe there can be an option in the new 
installer, to install only alsa, OSS, or artsd. Im not sure how things are 
structured. I think however this is something that does need to be fixed.
