When playing an mp3 with xmms and using mozilla, sometimes when I click on a link, mozilla stalls. When I stop the mp3, the page finally loads. Let me know if you need any more information. TIA.
My kernel is 2.4.21-pre3.
My soundcard uses es1371.
The es1371 driver only provides one digital playback channel. So, if one application uses /dev/dsp, other applications trying to do the same will block.
Most likely, the web page you're trying to open has some flash animation on it (even some ad banners use flash) and the flashplayer plugin tries to open /dev/dsp and blocks, and since mozilla waits for the plugin to initialize, it blocks, too.

Once I stop the mp3 to let the page load, I can start the mp3 again, reload the page, and it works..
