Hih, it's snowing here. :-)

Ah, thanks a lot! I only tried browsing around Google Groups a bit,
and bumped into my old posting about the same subject. *g* Anyway, I'm
using GNOME with Enlightenment, but I'm 100% sure I've disabled the
sound from this window manager. But now that I remember it, yesterday
when I installed GNOME the "Enable sound server startup" box was
checked from "Sound"-section of GNOME Control Center. I disabled the
feature yesterday, as well, as I got around to configure my brand new
desktop enviroment. :-) So, what comes to 16001, it was a false alarm.

Still, the connection attempt from localhost to port 111 puzzles me...
