hmm, what platform is this? the SDL_mixer sound mixing is done in a 
background thread (except os MacOS i suppose). so it shouldn't matter if 
the code is in the tcl loop.

here's an idea. can you install some sort of 'idle' callback in tkinter 
that just calls pygame.event.pump() ? or just put a callback on a timer 
every second or so and have it call this function.
