eh? I have sound with flash and I don't have esd installed. I don't have proper hardware mixing though, so when I want to hear sound with flash I usually have to restart firefox or it doesn't work. Presumably this is fixable, and is due to flash using oss rather than alsa, but I haven't really tried. On a computer with a soundcard that does do hardware mixing (and without esd installed) I could get sound with flash whilst other things were playing sound though.
