newbie question:
I realize sound is integral to gameplay, but sometimes I just want to run a familiar route during my break & listen to e.g. online-radio.
but whenever I have another sound app running, bve hangs with a 'unable to initialize direct sound' error. any solution?

Not really I tried this too, but only if the sound output is another wave. If it used something like the CD output then you can do both! (I think....)

hmmmm. odd.WinMediaPlayer and RealPlayer each complain that the audio device is already in use- and if I start them first, bve complains.
.......but it actually works flawlessly with WinAmp! (?!?)something to do with circumventing default audio device setting maybe?OS:WinXp (home)
DX9.0
Avance AC97 Audio (sound2)
playback via TotalRecorder Emulator (sound1)(switching between card and my emulator doesn't affect anything, just catches streaming audio to .wav)btw: me, shocked at your guys answering speed !

Winmedia and RealPlayer both use the wav output! try Quicktime that works, it plays both at the same time!
