Neither of those are in my Inbox. Blame Mozilla. :)

It's better because the whole audio system doesn't fail in the case of 
minor failure. It'd be like calling off a football game (or whatever 
you're into) because one of the substitutes ruptured an eyelash.

During start-up the ux500 has a couple of very unimportant widgets fail. 
It's the wrong behavior to force failure on the everything audio just 
because of that.
