Public bug reported:
In Gutsy Tribe 3 with all updates until today,
VMware Player 2.0.0 build-45731 starts with its Sound Adapter disabled
and if I try to enable it shows an error 'Failed to open sound device
/dev/dsp: device or resource busy. Failed to connect virtual device
sound'.
I'm only able to enable vmware's Sound Adapter if I first kill -9 the
esd process.
This problem wasn't present in Feisty 7.04.
Reproducible: Always
BTW: why not adopt OSS 4.0 now instead of using ALSA+ESD??
