I installed pulseaudio and the esound compat package, in the Gnome -> Preferences -> Sound -> Devices I have set all devices to pulseaudio and clicking test I can hear sound and the x11 bell plays in pulseaudio. The directory /tmp/.esd is created but
erm67@ubuntu:~$ esdplay /usr/share/sounds/login.wav
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
Usage:program_name [address][:port]ermanno@ubuntu:~$
The most strange thing is that
ermanno@ubuntu:~$ esdplay -s 127.0.0.1 /usr/share/sounds/login.wav
works perfectly .......
If I enable "software sound mixing" in Gnome -> Preferences -> Sound -> Sound
I cannot hear sounds and the syslog is filled with
Apr 21 16:51:40 ubuntu pulseaudio[5897]: pid.c: daemon already running.
