I often listen to online radio (slacker.com) when I'm on the internet. However, whenever I click any of the game buttons on the map (Refresh, Home, Zoom, View)... my internet radio stops. This isn't a major problem or anything, but it would be nice if it didn't.

what are your PC specs?
what flash version are you using?

Happens on my Pandora.com radio too, when I refresh a map it pauses the station. I use a Mac Mini w/Intel, OSX 10.4.11, Firefox 3.5.3, I have a very new version of Flash player, don't know where to look for the version number in Firefox...

Processor: Intel(R)Core(TM)2DuoCPU P9600 @ 2.66GHz 2.67Ghz
Memory: 4.00 GB
System type: 64-bit Operating System
Flash: 10,0,32,18

@Mog I found my flash here:

and Slacker > Pandora

It does this any time I have any music or sound effects playing on my computer for anything. I use a laptop, the comps at the library, the comps at the cac, and the comps at the internet cafe. I don't think it has anything to do with his computer

It's probably just that Req has sound effects for those actions and that is taking over what should be a separate sound channel.

There should be a way to check to see if any sound is already playing and always assign a new sound channel for waronline sounds.

Im not sure that Req will be able to fix this issue as it is a common issue with online games. whether you are using IE or any other browser.
Win Media Player for some reasons has many issues with many online game sounds. We are frequently asked to fix this issue in my job but are unable too find any real fix. Sometimes closing MP then opening game then restarting MP sometimes fixs issue, we have also found that online radios are the worse for sound drop outs and also If Skype is installed on PC that can get in way as well.
Maybe its because we here in NZ are the arse end of the world who knows
Also you could try using a dif player. That too has had some success.
