Hi Edmund,

I do not have a clue, maybe this bug is better placed at the packages "snack" or "alsa-base"

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=alsa-base

I am CC-ing the alsa package team and hopefully they have any idea or hint for us where to look at.

Regards,

Oliver

Dear Oliver,
I am extremely sorry, too, for my late response, I absolutely forgot this bug. 
Well, I'm in the sid branch now (alsa-base1.0.23-dfg, scid4.3, vlc1.1.8), but 
the problem still appears. So vlc or a flash application/video runs, with 
perfect sound. Then I start scid, sound disappears. Closing scid doesn't help, 
and pause/play too. With (for example) Youtube I should refresh the page to 
have its sound again. When scid runs, I can start a new Youtube video, flash 
application or something with vlc (remember, not from paused state), sound 
appears.
I hope it is not confusing. My installation is the default system without GUI, 
then fluxbox, vlc, flashplugin-nonfree (with chromium or firefox), and scid. 
Well, I don't remember I installed alsa-base, but aptitude tells me it was 
non-automatic installation. Where can
  I check my soundweights? Maybe the sequence of my installation was X, vlc, 
scid, and THEN alsa-base, and probably this ruined the weighting chain. I don't 
know if it is important there, but I hope I helped you.
I will perform an OS-reinstall in a few days. I'll install stable_amd64, and 
will try to install X, fluxbox, vlc, browser, flashplugin-nonfree, alsa-base 
and scid. I'll send a mail about the issues.
Sorry for my bad English, and thanks your work :)

Dear Edmund,

I am sorry to respond so late, but I can't reproduce.

I tried to do with 1:4.2.2.cvs20110111-1 and the later version. At the
moment I am testing with scid 4.3 and can't reproduce. But maybe I am
misunderstanding and I would like to sort some things out, that might
help us to get hold on the issue:

First:As far as I know the behavior of sound ressources are directly
bound to the sound system you choose. What sound system do you have
installed? Alsa would be the default or esound maybe?

My system with alsa soundsystem behaves different to yours:
- Video-Sound has more weight than scids move-sound
- If a video (vlc) is started scids move-sound is disabled
- If the video stops: move-sound is there as before

That Video-Sound has more weight than scids move-sound, sounds
tolerable, and might be caused due to hardware/soundcard access.

In my
  opinion this problem is related and caused by the sound system, so
I will try to find out more information there.

Any further information, especially of your sound system, would help.

Thanks,

Oliver
