I have a friend who had to disable Compiz to play WOW. In the in-game
settings in the sound section check the one that plays in the background if
you switch focus (I think thats how its phrased). Also, on my Debian Etch
with Gnome desktop I switch workspaces with "Ctrl+Alt+[arrow key of choice]
- MUST be an arrow key. Don't know if that helps, but it works for me.
