[mythtv-users] MythMusic works great, but MythTV = /dev/dsp busy

Thanks Isaac and Thor.  I tried turning off the Sound Server (as Thor
suggested).  No luck.  Still no sound in MythTV.  (but the live TV
picture looks great on my 42" Widescreen!)

Isaac, where is the binary located?  I don't care much for arts.

Thanks!
Aaron
