Esd should not be being started at bootup, as it's a Gnome thing, but will

Sarge, and logged into Gnome, there under "Applications/Desktop
Preferences/Sound" there is the option to start the sound server. You've
perhaps looked at this already, but if not, and the box is checked, uncheck
the darned thing.

Also, on my system, with 'libesd-alsa0' installed (instead of 'libesd'),
sound playing is not blocked by esd. I think this can also fix
problem. HTH.
