Bug#205888: rhythmbox cannot be used with esd/gnome sound events

[Marcos Pinto]

i dont really see the big deal about this bug.  yes, it makes rhythmbox
useless with esd...but *only* with the default settings in place.  gnome
by default starts esd with 'esd -nobeeps', which means that esd is
always hooked into the audio device, thus preventing rhythmbox from
accessing it.  simply by changing the way esd is started with 'esd
-nobeeps -as2', rhythmbox can work prefectly as well as not disrupting
those programs that use esd.  hopefully this tip will help some out
there with this problem.  i would change this bug to severity normal and
cordinate with the gnome/esd packagers to maybe change the default
method of starting esd. 
v/r,
