I don't consider that as a usable way to do it. I mean the ability to turn on/off the plugin as it is possible for java. And without requiring root privilege. But I recently removed it because it seems to be coded by braindead coders.

But you still need esd under gnome. You can use a esd daemon dedicated to alsa (IIRC libesd-alsa) but my experiment show me that the quality is better using the normal esd daemon and the alsa oss emulation. When I need to use a soft without esd plugin (like mplayer) I use esdctl to temporarly turn on and off esd.
