Perhaps this is the problem then? Allegro might be stealing the main 
buffer away from the other apps, causing them to go silent.

Daniel, could you try to change this? Should be around line 376 of 
src/win/wdsndmix.c. Change it from DSSCL_WRITEPRIMARY to DSSCL_PRIORITY, 
then run make and make install again.
