Package: libesd-alsa0
Version: 0.2.36-1
Severity: important

Hi!


When libesd-alsa0 is used instead of libesd0, my Gnome session hangs at
startup. The splash screen is shown, the welcome sound is played and
then nothing more happens: the splash screen remains on the screen, no
icons appear on it and the gnome desktop is not launched. The system is
idle (no high cpu use, around 1%).

The only way to make the startup of Gnome continue is to kill the esd
process with the smaller PID. After that everything works well, Gnome is
started, but with no sound of course!


I have made severals tests to see where the problem comes from:
* this doesn't occur if I lauch a Gnome session with my root account
* this occurs with every else user
* this doesn't occur with libesd0

I can provide an strace log, but as I needed to catch everything in the
startup process, it has a size of 3M, which I suppose is too much to be
helpful.


I can help with debugging and testing, just tell me what you need! :)


Cheers,

Steph
