102638 - Mozilla doesn't start when sound device is in use

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 58339

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Felix Gertz]

Hi!

My Mozilla doesn't start when the sound device is in use.
When I start it nothing appears, but mozilla-bin is in the processlist.
I put the music off and *plop* it appears.

My first thought was that a plugin could be the problem, but I have only these
plugins installed:
libflashplayer.so
libjavaplugin_oji140.so
libnullplugin.so
rpnp.so
Nothing of these plugins are used by starting, aren't they?
And normaly Mozilla doesn't use the sound device when it starts.Or not?

Greetings

Felix

It's the flash plugin's fault, actually.  It tries to open the sound device on
startup (when we initialize it).  And this is partially fixed in current builds;
we now don't initialize it quite the same way.
