It is the KDE sound daemon, esd performs a similar task for GNOME. Sound daemons are a way for more than one application to be able to use the sound device, even if it doesn't support hardware mixing, so a program alert can beep when you are listening to music. ALSA now supports mixing out of the box, so sound daemons are largely redundant. -- Neil Bothwick TROI : What am I sensing?? I'm sensing INCOMPETENCE, you pretentious bald pseudo-French dickweed!
