Hi All I fully apologize for my recent post, which is solved now. Simply after removing the /tmp/.esd directory, all the messages disappeared, then after startx, the ~/.esd_auth file was being created. Cannot understand. Logically, an unix socket should have been created, but where? It was not under the /tmp/.esd directory, which doesn't exist anymore. In any case, the sound works perfectly well with gnome and RealPlayer, which is configured to work with the esd sound daemon. I must be stupid.
