Bug#44811: Noatun halts on playback

[Shamyl Zakariya]

Charles,

I don't know if this will be helpful or not, but I was poking around and 
noticed that XMMS (using arts output driver) worked fine until I ran noatun -- 
at which point, it halted, and showed output of the same variety as my noatun 
error on the command line.

If I restarted artsd, xmms worked fine again, until I ran noatun, at which 
point it all died again.
