See steps to reproduce and actual results. Note that GAIM was working for a long time, but I recently did an emerge world, and then, well, this.... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start GAIM, login to AIM account 2.open up a window to start chatting with someone 3.type message and hit enter Actual Results: GAIM disappears. I think the other person sees the message and then sees me drop offline. Expected Results: GAIM sends message and doesn't disappear. I've tried emerge gaim with USE="debug" and running with gaim -d.

Either disable sound in gaim or don't use ARTS for sound in gaim. This is a bug in libao. http://trac.xiph.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/644
That did the trick -- thanks!
