OK, so someone posted here a question as how to have both Gnome
sound events, via ESD, and then allow ALSA to do it's thing. There
appeared tonight an answer in the Debian Forum.

Here's the message (and this works, too):

Adding: Code: default_options=-as 1

to /etc/esound/esd.conf helped me considerably. ESD by default takes
control of the sound system and won't let anything else use it. The
above line tells ESD that after 1 second of being idle release the
sound system for others to use. It didn't help with the 1-3 second
delay between the audio app and the speakers when the audio was going
through esd(made watching movies a little weird).

HTH whoever it was asking about this.
