Don't know much about this sort of thing. Could it be a duplex problem?

Have you looked through your settings in the Control Center -> Sound & Multimedia -> Sound System menu?

Simultaneous audio.

artsd provides multiple audio availability, because it acts as the audio device, and can mix all sorts of things in software, which it then feeds to the audio device.

Likely, your programs are using audio directly to another method, rather than through artsd.

I've run lots of audio, such as xmms and mplayer at the same time, with them both playing at the same time.
