Thanks for your repport. I think it's a problem with dbus. The daemon must still wait for some process started via dbus, who doesn't close. so if you kill X, elsa will restart (you have a new X-dbus session). I have already other one problem with communication between dbus and X . I need some investigation to fix them in right way !
