Summary: 'pd -alsa -send "; pd dsp 1"' fails with -nogui
Initial Comment:
$ pd -alsa -send "; pd dsp 1"
works fine
$ pd -alsa -nogui -send "; pd dsp 1"
snd_pcm_open (output): Device or resource busy
if i send to a custom receiver and delay the message by 100ms it seems to work ok, but still, not perfect
at a guess there's a race condition somewhere, and using the gui slows it down enough to work? just a guess though
tested on GNU/Linux/Debian/Lenny/pure:dyne with pd-0.41
may also affect other sound APIs, but I haven't tested with anything other than ALSA

Again in Ubuntu Jaunty,
Running the same startup patch which loadbangs "pd dsp 1" in pd-extended
0.40.3 with "-rt" yields the same problem. I suppose in realtime mode, pd
runs too fast to avoid the race condition.

Confirmed in pd-extended 0.41.4 on Ubuntu Jaunty.
Cannot open the soundcard when starting pd with "pd -nogui -alsa -audiodev
4 ~/StartupPatch.pd" where "StartupPatch.pd" loadbangs a "pd dsp 1"
message:
snd_pcm_open (input): Device or resource busy
snd_pcm_open (output): Device or resource busy
Using jack, "-jack -channels 2" connects ok. I have not not tried oss.
Doing the same on pd-extended 0.40.3 works fine.
Well, at least I can just delay the dsp switch for now to make it work.

oh forgot to say:
OSS:
/dev/dsp (writeonly): Device or resource busy
/dev/dsp (readonly): Device or resource busy
with jack it seems to work fine (though i often have other problems with
jack, so i don't know how reliable this is)

Message:
confirmed with Pd-0.42.4 (debian lenny/squeeze; x86)
however i thought the proper way to specify the send-message was "pd dsp
1" (without the leading semicolon)
