Maybe this bug is not that important at all? For Hardy Heron, Ubuntu may be heading to Pulse Audio as universal solution [1]. I tried pulseaudio on my Ubuntu 7.10 PC, it works nice (there are instructions how to do it [2]). Pulseaudio emulates esd very well, because it is a replacement for esd. So I asked SDL to output sound via ESD, by installing package libsdl1.2debian-esd. My speakers aren't very good but what I hear sounds OK or at least much much better compared to crackling sound via alsa. Probably thanks to pulseaudio, latency is also very good.
