On my server I run gnome-volume-control and it comes up just fine.
On a terminal (as a secondary user) I get "No volume control elements and/or devices found."

On the dumb terminal as the primary user the coltrol comes up and I can edit sound fine.

However

I still can't actually get any sound. Login chimes, systems sounds, ogg files, nothing plays.

When I opened an ogg file (with full permissions) in rhythembox on the dickless workstation (as the primary user) I get "Couldn't open resource for writing."

When I try to open the sound monitor I get, "Cannot connect to sound daemon. PLease run 'esd' as a command prompt." (which I did)

When I run this I get, "esd: Esound sound daemon already running or stale UNIX socket. /tmp/.esd/socket This socket already exists indicating esd is already running. Exiting..."

I'm at a loss. Maybe my hardware isn't compatible? I'm running ltsp with the ltsp term 150.

Anything?

It's not that big a deal since this is an office and we don't NEED sound, but it bothers me.

Sound is probably the most problematical area with LTSP. I have struggled with it
but mostly got it working.  Have you looked at the sound page on the wiki?

/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf should include the ff lines:
   SOUND = Y
   SOUND_DAEMON = esd

Then check Desktop->Preferences->More Preferences->Multimedia Systems Selector and make sure esd is selected. This should be enough to get system sounds working.

I found gmplayer the easiest to get working so try installing it (and all the codecs).
Start it with the command gmplayer -ao sdl:esd and you should have sound.

I may have forgotten something here so if this doesn't work, let me know.
