PostPosted: Sat Mar 20, 2004 5:10 pm    Post subject: mozilla, java and sound.. Reply with quote

I've searched and posted in this forum trying to know if there is anyway to set up java plugin to use ESD instead of accessing /dev/dsp directly.
As the ones that replied didnt know how, I'd like to disable sound in java plugin so it wont "steal" /dev/dsp" from ESD..
anyway to do this...?

thank you

USE="alsa java" emerge mozilla


upgrade yourself with alsa (check the alsa guide @ gentoo.org) :)

Do you use KDE?
If yes, try shutting alsa down, and using dmix :wink:

Sorry to dig up an old post, but did anyone get a solution to this? I have this problem too and can't seem to get firefox to use alsa dmix at all :-(. It means I can't listen to music whilst playing on pokerroom.com!

emerge alsa-oss, then start firefox with "aoss firefox".

This should work, although there is no guarantee that it does. :wink:
