Package: xmms2
Version: 0.5DrLecter-2
Severity: important

xmms2 play music files (MP3) just fine when we don't have esound package 
installed. However as soon as we install esound xmms2 won't play songs 
and gives following error message in the xmms2d.log file:
--- Starting new xmms2d ---
 INFO: ../src/xmms/log.c:36: Initialized logging system :)
 INFO: ../src/xmms/ipc.c:950: IPC listening on 
'unix:///tmp/xmms-ipc-user'.
 INFO: ../src/xmms/main.c:507: Using output plugin: alsa
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:996:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ERROR: ../src/plugins/alsa/alsa.c:213: Couldn't open device: default
ERROR: ../src/xmms/output.c:957: Could not initialize output plugin
..cache/xmms2/xmms2d.log (END) 

I need esound package (esd utility) so that I can hear my GNOME events 
and sounds. Looks like esound takes control over alsa plugin and hence 
xmms2 fails. 

In xmms - pervious version of xmms2 I use to get around this by forcing 
xmms2 to use the libesdout.so output plugin and everything was happy - 
GNOME sound events and XMMS player. With XMMS2 I was not able to find a 
similar libesdout plugin.

Thanks
