[Bug 85791] Re: Amarok loops through all songs when the sound device isn't available

I just wanted to chime-in on this as it has been a persistent problem
with Amarok (and I don't necessarily believe it is a Ubuntu problem).

Amarok seems to want to completely take over the OSS (sound server), and
won't play nice with any other apps that want to use sound. You may have
also noticed that you can't use any other applications that produce
sound while Amarok is running (movies, flash, mp3 streams), and system
sounds don't work either.

And, has has already been stated- if anything does manage to grab OSS's
attention while Amarok is running- it will simply loop through the
playlist or, in some cases, just lock up.

I haven't found any fixes or solutions, nor have I found a music player
I like better than Amarok.
