Sound issues....

Hey all

google was NOT my friend for the answer to this, so I'll ask all of you.

Why oh why does the sound always cut out in-world? I start streaming the music, and it cuts out.
- My audio drivers are up to date, and this cut out does not happen in iTunes.
- I have all the required ports open on my router
- i'm using the latest client.

any ideas? this is driving me bonkers......

thanks in advance.

ok, so I might have answered my own question.

I don't think I should be downloading anything whilst playing SL.....apparently I don't have enough bandwidth to handle it all
