it is very annoying! and even when I change the sound system from arts to xine or vice versa the program crashes at times.
I use xine at times, because my realplayer installation conflicts when arts is running, so does my mplayer, rather xine works fine for all.
I used amarok 1.1 for a long long time, and I used to switch b/w the engines without any issue.
I've got some self-compiled *tgz files of amaroK 1.2.1 and Xine-lib 1.0 for my personal use lying around here. They are compiled for i686, Slack 10.1.
I don't know if they will work with arts 'cause I don't use it. They work fine for me and are pretty stable as far as I can see. If you want, drop me an eMail and we'll see how I send them over to you. :-)
