[SLUG] XMMS no sound problem

[Jeff Ai <jeffaiau@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

my xmms stopped working last nite after i upgraded it from 1.2.8 to 1.2.9
when i tried to play anything, it will freeze.

i am running Fedora Core 1 and using Gnome as my default desktop env.

then i uninstalled xmms and then reinstalled from the CD ROM xmms 1.2.8 
still didn't work.

all other sounds are working fine (realplayer, mplayer, system sounds 
etc.)  and esd is running.

and i checked /dev/dsp .. e.g. fuser /dev/dsp and nobody is using it.

any idea, what is going on?

thanks
