any other application sound can be heard if musescore is running
If the musescore is running and I play anything with it, it is prefect. But if I would like to heard sound of any other application I can not do while the musescore is running. Why? How can I fix it?

ISTR this to be a known issue for MuseScore on Linux, but not on Windows and Mac?

It's not a Linux thing, per se. I can run 1.3 and the current builds for 2.0 with sound and have VLC playing back with sound and I didn't do anything special to set them up. Just lucky, perhaps. Using xubuntu 14.04. I do recall looking up a Linux sound troubleshooting guide before I upgraded to 14.04 so worth Googling that, maybe. FWI I have 1.3 I/O set to Internal Synth, ALSA, Portaudio and 2.0 set to Pulseaudio. Maybe not giving a jack about Jack is the answer.

See #22179: Musecore 1.3 suspends PulseAudio when it should not, so other applications cannot use sound, it is gawk vs. mawk

Cool, man, you save my life. The gawk workaround works perfectly. THX!
