Hmm, I installed the ESound daemon, but I can't get my MP3 player (amp) to use esd -- it insists on going to /dev/dsp directly. I tried the esddsp script but it still doesn't work. Any clues? T

The esound enlightened sound daemon offers this sort of thing in software. I think the commercial version of oss/linux (www.opensound.org, right?) offers this ability too. And, if you have a nice new pci soundcard that does this stuff natively, the proper drivers should make it go quite nicely,

I installed esound and tried to get amp to work with esd... but I can't figure out how. Plus, now I found out that esdplay doesn't even work. I can play sounds with esdplay when no esd daemon is running in the background... but whenever esd is running, it just exits immediately and no sound is
