I may have been unclear but its not that i dont get sound from
these--its that when one source IS playing sound, then i cant use any
of the others, so if i have XMMS playing i cant watch (that is,
listen) to YouTube. And then if something that I CANT FIGURE OUT is
playing, i cant use any of the others and dont know what to do about
it (ie., if i know im listening to XMMS i can stop if i need to watch
YouTube but i am getting "sound card in use" messages when i dont
think im using anything at all).
Several other people have made suggestions, and i thank you and will
try them when i get back to my Debian machine!

Ah, I see. Yes, when watching crappy youtube videos, it's important to
be able to listen to Bach or Chopin on xmms simultaneously to keep the
world balanced. Like having a double cheese pizza with expensive wine.
I'm able to watch and listen to films with totem, while listening to
music using xmms, and playing a CD using gnome-cd player, at the same
time. So, I imagine you should be able to as well.
Hating to contradict myself, but perhaps unchecking the "Enable
software sound mixing (ESD)" box would work (followed by restarting), to
allow alsa to do its thing without the so-called Enlightened Sound
Daemon, which perhaps is in conflict with alsa. I myself don't have it
checked, and sound works fine on my system.
Again, good luck.
