Can someone who understands the various sound systems comment on whether this 
would be a good idea?

Does Maemo Fremantle include ALSA support (there seems to be a libasound in 
the SDK)?

Would porting libesd-alsa0 to Maemo Fremantle be sensible?  Would it work?

It mentions something called the "Enlightened Sound Daemon" -- is this a 
daemon process which has to be running?  If so, it sounds like that wouldn't 
be a good idea on the tablet (memory and battery usage).

Would I be better off porting GPE's sound requirements to work with libasound 
instead?

Actually, as this is in the alarm code, many people would be much happier if I 
just made it work with the Maemo alarm subsystem -- the most frequently 
requested GPE enhancement!  Does that still work the same way in Fremantle?
