Seen the same problem when using KDE. It then pops up six messages stating that /dev/dsp is in use. A quick lsof | grep dsp reveals that it is artsd who occupies the. When I kill artsd, I am naturally able to play music with rythmbox. But this problem will go away anyway by itself in Fedora Core 2, as it it has a 2.6 series kernel => ALSA which has multiple-stream support, rigth?
For all of you: What is the output of: gconftool-2 -g /system/gstreamer/0.8/default/audiosink Be sure it's "alsasink". Once that works, we need bug #130593 to be fixed.
