Eh, actually, I think close() will be called anyway. I'm speaking of
two completely different processes: they don't have file descriptors
pointing to the same file description.

Close() has to be called when either process quits otherwise recording
or playing would still be active, although playing silence or dropping
recorded data.

Will do. :-)
