Has anyone else experienced the conflict between esd (esound) and apm
(advanced power management)? I just installed RH 6.0 on a notebook
computer (see end of message) and got everything working fine except
the apm standby mode.

When the user initiates a standby, either by a command or hot key
combination, the computer complies but then bounces back after 3-6
seconds. The logs show a normal apm resume event. This it turns out is
a conflict between apm and esd.

I killed esd and then standby worked
esdctl standby and then initiate the apm standby. 

It seems that apm cannot do whatever it has to do to suspend the esd
process or the esd process is waking up the computer from standby
mode. Not being a programmer type myself, anyone have any advice on
what to do now or who to contact with this information? Thanks for any
help.
