Firefox/Flash with jackd

[Chris Dawson]

This is intriguing.  I created a file exactly like the one in the
example, and then tried to run mplayer like this:

 mplayer -ao alsa Desktop/msg0053.WAV

I got this error:

Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.

I'll ask on the jackd list, but if you have suggestions I'd appreciate it.

I am surprised that this is a possible solution because I assumed
alsa/oss applications directly access (and lock) the hardware, and
this seems like a software routing solution.  I learn something new
every day.

Thanks for your assistance.

Chris
