Reading dmix.conf I see that you should be able to set this value by
setting cards.<driver>.pcm.dmix.period_size to 1024.

There is a new upstream release, 0.2.36, dated 2005-06-06 which contains
ALSA related fixes.  I presume that that is the version you tested.

I see no evidence that the esound maintainer has tried to package it for
Debian yet.  What makes you think that it has been delayed by a buildd
or ftbfs problem?
