Possible mod/solution:
I have seen there is a voice packager for sygic. So theoretically it should be possible to unpack the current voices, and add traffic announcement sounds to those files. Then, set the radio up to listen for TA announcements on the N900s FM transmitters frequency to make TA enabled radios switch to the navigation sounds and then back to CD/MP3/Whatever.

I have not tested this and don't know if it would be possible to do this with sygic audio files or if they are split up in tons of smaller files and making this proposal impossible. Anyone with experience with RDS, TA, Sygic and so on could make some statement about this?

Better yet, portable navigation system manufacturers like Sygic could/should make use of the TA feature for exactly this use-case.
... nice idea ! I've no idea what attributes TA's have on FM radio (RDS), but as you say this would be great if Sygic could do this.
