I removed "soundwrapper" from the command for xmms using menudrake, but
it didn't make any difference. I suppose I can just make a shortcut on
the desktop for xmms and not worry about it, but I'd like to find out
why it doesn't work and fix it. The really strange thing about this is
that xmms used to work from the menu.
