SYMPTOMS

When you play audio files with Windows Media Player, the audio may be interrupted when you attempt to make a dial-up connection.

CAUSE

This problem can occur because the modem driver in your computer uses higher priority threads; or, the modem driver has been directly accessing the processor for such an extended period of time that the audio playback process has been affected.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
