But you can wrap applications expecting the OSS sound drivers (ie /dev/dsp) to 
make use of esd through the esddsp drivers. For instance, replacing "xmms" 
with "esddsp xmms" allows you to use both the esound drivers and the OSS 
drivers from XMMS, and "esddsp kino" allows you to use Kino with sound coming 
out on the clients.

Placing a script in startup making the shell "alias" the sound applications 
with an esddsp wrapped version makes this transparent. Like this: "alias xmms 
esddsp xmms" (if I remember correctly).
