Package: esound Version: 0.2.36-1 Followup-For: Bug #246317 I have had similar issue. When esd is just activated, subsequently loaded gnome programs seem to work ok with sound, but suddenly they freeze completely, until esd is killed. Similarly, the next gnome sessions won't start (that is it stay freezed with the panel partially drawn on the screen), until I kill esd from a console. My problem is solved by putting "-d hw:0" as default option in esd.conf (that is "Intel 82801DB-ICH4" for me). It seems that otherwise, esd will sometimes choose the hw:1 device, which is "Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Modem", and freeze on it. Maybe that choice should be asked to the user at the installation of the package, instead of risking program lockup ?
