More aggravating than that to me is that I have the same setup working great on a Woody system and esd never crashes on me. Yet it's getting fairly common on a Sarge/Sid mix I have running. All I can figure is it's because Sarge _is_ still a work in progress, or the different sound cards... or maybe both. Unfortunately for me, I'm not smart enough to find the fix for either question.
