This is not the intended behaviour for the ALSA backend, definitely.

helps you.

[Ekiga-list] Ekiga does not play sound when other applications already play sound, even with ALSA

[klmn05d]

Hi,

I'm using Ekiga for internet telephony. Everything works perfectly well,
except that Ekiga refuses to play any sounds when another application is
playing sound. This way, I won't be able to hear incoming calls when I'm
playing music.

Other applications (e.g. Skype) do NOT have this problem. I am using the
ALSA drivers.

Is this intended behaviour of Ekiga, or am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks for your help.

If anybody could answer any of the above questions I would be thankful! I
AM already using ALSA instead of OSS.

Michel
