[Debian] sound programs.. no sound from VLC

[Didier "Ptitjes"]

Hi!

I had to renice mplayer to -10 to get it playing an ogg file with no 
trouble at all... (with pythm under FDOM - BTW there is a conf option to 
tell the mplayer backend the nice level for the mplayer instance)

Best regards, Didier.
