running 10.4, pidgin 2.6.6 (audio method set to Auto)

whenever i watch a youtube video (in chrome) and pidgin generates a sound during that movie i dont hear the pidgin sound until after i close the youtube movie (or better, close the chrome tab the video was playing in)
once i close the youtube tab it seems that all the pidgin sounds get played all at the same time (like they have been queued but had to wait for the youtube video to stop first)

when i open the sound preference - application tab (while i am watching the youtube vid) i can see the number of instances of pidgin increasing (probably with every sound pidgin generates)

this issue also frequently mutes the sound of a video when i start it (it does not mute the sound once the vid is playing)
to fix this i need to rewind the vid a couple of times and then the video starts with sound
