 At the moment we are not able handle multiple clients accessing the sound
 device at the same time. Activities like etoys, tamtam and memorize need
 to release the sound device when not in focus (or when not the active
 activity).

 This problem can be solved by using a sound server that helps the
 different clients that connect to perform tasks like mixing several
 streams into one, changing the sample format or transferring the audio
 data to a different machine.

 Maybe this is Update.2 or Update.3
