As others have already said, killing the application that blocks
the device is one possible solution.


Your spelling of "konsole" implies that you are using KDE. If that's
of the KDE3.* series, then it probably still uses artsd (the software
synthesizer that also serves as multiplexer). In this case you have
also these possibilities:

  $ artsdsp fgfs --aircraft=...

This makes fgfs use the arts daemon. That way the fgfs sound is mixed
with other (desktop) sounds, so you hear both. Or you can just suspend
the daemon:

  $ artsshell suspend && fgfs --aircraft=...

That's like killing artsd, except that it resumes after you have
stopped using fgfs.
