audio hangs for a few seconds

[mlybarger]

i have a weird problem using xmms and i think any audio applications. i'm using via8668? alsa audio driver and kde. when i run xmms and try to play a song, it takes 10-20 seconds before the music starts to play. i've tried playing with xmms settings but that didn't help. i tried building xmmx myself from source, but that didn't help. has anyone else seen this? know any solutoins? i seem to recall xmms working fine using enlightenment.

Try fiddling with the KDE sound server settings.
