One of my friends (a math guy) who has a passing familiarity with
systems like GNU/Linux, upon seeing my TiBook running GNOME for the
first time, asked in all seriousness "Is that computer made to run
Linux"?
Of course, the GNU stickers on the lid probably aided that impression
:)

Yeah, it would be nice if pmud handled this by sending SIGPWR to init
(or however it's "traditionally" done).

Add your regular user account to group "audio". The /dev/dsp device
should by default be owned by root.audio, mode 660.

Just set XMMS to use ESD as its output plugin.
