Alert sound delay

[KarlH]

I'm running MacOS X 10.2.3 on a 640 MB eMac. A few weeks ago the alert sounds started acting up. Basically, they don't play until a couple of seconds after something happens. Not exactly a major malfunction, but it can get annoying. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

It is a feature. I even called Apple tech. The delay made editing video difficult. They didn't have a clue.

Download KeepAwake from versiontracker.com. It will fix and explain the feature.
