Just some notes:
- Alsa enables multiopen only if the underlying hardware supports
this. Cheap laptop audio normally doesnt for instance.
- There are several sound daemons out there:
- esd used by gnome
- arts used by kde
- gstreamer
- jackd used by people interested in music applications
I would say that finding a solution for emacs that always manages to
play a sound withouth configuration is next to impossible.
Maybe a solution would be to make it possible to configure an external
player command, when the internal method is not suficient?
