I have met some sound incompatibilities.  I don't kow who is at fault,
but maybe you will release your INIT to the public and can avoid some
of them.

I recently started getting into having my Mac make more noise.  I got
a cookoo sound and a newer version of SuperClock.  I thought it would
be great to have it cookoo on the hour.  It crashed, so I told
TimeKeeper to play that sound each hour (I love MultiFinder +
memory!).  Fine--most of the time.  I also have a key click from
SoundMaster and sometimes when I am typing right when the hour strikes
TimeKeeper will cookoo but then freeze.  I assume they are colliding.
Turns out I can recover by blowing away TimeKeeper with an ExitToShell
in Macsbug, but I would like a better solution.  Anyone else see this?
