I'm Irish but live in the US and realplayer is my one "must have" audio application for listening to Irish radio! I'm not familiar with Totem but it seems that it is not esd-aware. If you've installed all the plugins for totem, read about all the configuration options in the documentation, checked out the advanced option menus, and still don't have the option to divert the sound output to esd, the easiest solution would probably be to change to applications that are esd-aware. I use xmms and vlc media player (www.videolan.org) and both work well on the clients. vlc can play video and audio, it plays pretty much everything that Windows Media Player does - if there is not enough network capacity to transfer video and audio it drops the video. Just be sure you track down a package that includes all the codecs you need. If you're lucky someone will have built such a package for Mandrake.
