I think this is part of the "gstreamer esd plugin broken bug" :)
Unless proven otherwise, this is probably also a bug in 0.8.0
I cannot reproduce the bug anymore. System : Debian Sid -libesd-alsa 0.2.34-1 -alsa from 2.6.9-rc1 kernel -gstreamer0.8-alsa,esd 0.8.4-1 and 0.6.4-5.1 on the same box, i don't know which one is used (can i find out ?) -esound 0.2.34-1 - gnome-media 2.6.2-1 Can you close it if i failed at it . Cheers Alban
Seems to be fixed, so closing.
