if esd just happens not to be running at the moment, then esdplay will just hang. i.e., before running esdplay, one has to ensure that esd is up and running (and is in a workable state). I don't recall if we ever reached a firm conclusion about whether Emacs needs to know how to talk to esd. Some argued that, with recent ALSA, Emacs should work fine without knowing about esd. Is that a clear consensus?
I only know that ALSA drivers allows multiple opens of the sound device, and for a similar problem regarding Realplayer and esd the suggested solution it to switch to ALSA drivers. But Sam must himself confirm that it indeed solves his problem.
