A lot of problem with pygame.mixer module!

[Sébastien Ouellet]

I had the same problem and struggled through every solution posted on
the web. None actually helped but I discovered bbfreeze :
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bbfreeze/
It works as well as py2exe and there are no problems with
pygame.mixer. It's easy to install and the example script at the end
of the page does the trick.
