Bug Description
In Intrepid I can only get sound from either Firefox or from Totem/Exaile. If I start Totem and/or Exaile for some film or music (they work side by side with each other) the sound from thoose to comes out from my speakers, and then I can start Firefox, but then I wont get some audio from it.
And if I start Firefox first the sound from anything else wont works.
Update:
It works like this.
Exaile works not Firefox
Totem works not Firefox
Exaile works not Wesnoth
Totem works not Wesnoth
Firefox works not Wesnoth

The soundcard is a 82801H from lspci.
The kernel is 2.6.26-5-generic (same thing with 2.6.27.1/2)
