Fatal.
I'd guess something's wrong in the alsa library. I'd suggest replying to the list, not to individuals, so everyone can see your problem. There are people who know a lot more about it than I do. When you respond list the versions of all your sound stuff. "dpkg -l|grep esound; dpkg -l|grep alsa" Incidentally...can you play sound or load esound as root? If so it's a device permission issue.
