There must be a program that is still using it. You could check with fuser
(see man fuser for details). If you do "fuser /dev/dsp0" and the device is
being used it will show you the PIDs (process id's) of the programs that
are using the device. A "ps -auxw" will show you everything that's
running, just match the PID you got from fuser with the real program name
there.

[just a guess, maybe you have esd <enlightment sound daemon> enabled...]
