Ok, I did some more testing,   The problem does NOT occur with 
-no-kvm.   It also appeared somewhere between kvm-29 and kvm-31  (29 and 
30 didn't build for me).

The good news is that the new version 34 does not seem to have this 
problem,  I haven't tested it extensively yet.

Lastly, what drove me to upgrade in the first place was that I was 
experiencing minor bugs running "The Sims" under XP.       There would 
be sound while the game is starting, but once the game starts, sound 
stops working.   Also the mouse pointer would leave behind "residue" on 
the screen which would be cleaned up every few seconds (I guess during a 
refresh).   I also had problems losing sound with iTunes.   I am using 
the es1370 setting for sound.  Like I said these were minor, and are 
still present in kvm-34.

Thanks,
Tony Smolar
