Detailed Description

This is an enhanced sound server interface which can be used to query status information or suspend the soundserver right away

Makes the soundserver suspend now _if_ it is not busy playing, that is, if it is "suspendable". Returns true if successful.

Permanently terminates the sound server - this is not intended to be widely used. However, it provides a way to "kill" the sound server, even if you don't reside on the same host with it, and even if you don't know the process id, and so on. In the future it also offers the possibility for interested apps to be informed before the server goes away, and for important apps to block termination.

Returns true if successful.
