I've done a significant amount of work recently on packaging up esound
for LTSP. I've been too busy getting K12LTSP v2.0 out the door (k12ltsp.org),
and am booked solid through this week, so it will be a little while longer
before I have a generic tarball ready.

If you are running Red Hat 7.2 (or something vaguely similar), you can
grab my rpm from:

  
ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/distributions/K12LTSP-rpms/ltsp/ltsp_esound-0.2-3.i386.rpm

The big "feature" that I've added is using Jim's scan_pci utility to detect
and auto-configure PCI sound cards.

The big advantage of esound over nasd is that esound can hook /dev/mixer as
well as /dev/dsp. That means that volume controls actually work ;-)
