Description
I think i found a "glitch" in Mickey's Space Adventure. In ship's screen, the mouse doesn't move very smoothly. Just go north when the game starts to this screen:
http://www.scummvm.org/screenshots.php?screenshotID=3_12_0
Could it be related to the sound being played?
I noticed this behavior in last SVN (Aug 24, 2008), in ScummVM 0.11 and 0.11.1, but not in TrollVM.

Yes, this is because of the way sound is handled in Mickey. When the sound is not playing during the rest, ScummVM just delays the system. So, the mouse cannot be moved while it delays.
I tried working on a fix for this, but I haven't gotten to it yet. I'll look into it.

So it is because of the delayMillis call in Mickey::playNote(). Ugh, that's indeed a bad hack and deserves to be fixed :).
A quick solution would be to replace that simple delay with an event loop -- in SCUMM we have a special "waitForTimer(int delay)" method which delays, but not by just invoking delayMillis, but via an event loop plus shorter delayMillis calls.

Do note that the original game did not have mouse cursor support (nor ScummVM's "click-to-move" mouse functionality), so it's more apparent in ScummVM...

So, any chance one of you guys could look into implementing the simple fix I suggested?

Just noticed this one
Fixed in the latest SVN version by using the waitForTimer() function from the SCUMM engine
