I'm not, but if it works with python it's my dream editor. I like edsharp, but i don't like being teathered to windows to use it.

Aside from the long explaination, it seems when I turn down the volume on the media player, the master volume goes down, too. Is there a way to make it where they have separate volume settings so that it won't affect speakup?
