Initial Comment:
Patch from Ximian bugzilla.

It is not clean solution, but at least some GNOME users
will be happy with it.

Patch author:  Joe Shaw

Comment: Kind of a nasty quick-fix hack, but it should
do the trick.

Description

Please fill in this template when reporting a bug,
unless you know what you
are doing.
Description of Problem:

If I am using Rhythmbox 0.8.3 to play my MP3's all
sound from GAIM
(0.80-2.2) seems to queue up until I quit Rhytmbox,
after which the sounds from
GAIM is played (quite annonying if you have been
chatting for a long
time).

If it's not belived to be related, let me know and I
file a new bug
for it.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Start GAIM and Rhytmbox
2. Start playing your songs in Rhytmbox and start
chatting on GAIM
3. Quit Rhytmbox

Actual Results:
All sounds that have been queued from GAIM while
Rhytmbox was playing are
played

Expected Results:
To either supress the sounds all together or to play
them even if Rhytmbox
is playing

Are there times when esd and/or arts are running but
ao_default_driver_id() returns something other than esd and
arts?  If so, would that be considered a bug in libao?

The proposed change almost feels like it's attempting to
work around a flaw in libao, and it seems like it would be
better to modify ao_default_driver_id() to return esd and/or
arts before anything else.
