You should not install ESD; it is buggy as hell, and this is the reason why it isn't enabled by default in GNOME. If you want to share your ALSA devices with ESD, you can install libesd-alsa0 but I don't recommend that. If you really need a sound server, you should install PulseAudio which includes a compatibility layer for ALSA applications. It is considered to make PulseAudio the default sound system in GNOME, and we will probably follow upstream moves on this matter. -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.
