 Summary: osssink plugin blocks forever when dsp device is being used
@@ -56,6 +56,18 @@
 /dev/dsp is in use.  So there must a bug either in osssink or in my
 device driver (via82cxxx_audio).  However, xmms always reports an
 error when the device is busy, so I'm more inclined to believe it's
 gstreamer's fault.
 
   Anyway, maybe I'll try to debug this myself...

+  Ok, I reached the following conclusions:
+    1- you can't change the nonblocking mode of a file descriptor, I
+was wrong;
+    2- there is nothing wrong with the osssink element; it does report
+an error when the device is busy.  The faulty party is the gst-player.
+ It loops forever displaying the following message:
+
+Pipeline error: osscommon: Cannot open /dev/dsp, generic error:
+Resource temporarily unavailable
