Good idea. 

Do you have other programs running which uses the sound device? For examlpe
ksoundd/esd etc.. xmms ... exit all of them!

yes, Szabi has told the same at the devel list some days ago. But we can't
detect blocking of /dev/dsp. Normally, if it's busy (used by other programs)
it should return EBUSY for the open() syscall. But it opens fine, but
then blocks.
