OK, thanks. I remember reading that, but I wasn't sure how to enable it using a system file. Until now, I'd been doing killall artsd to use esound apps.

With arts, you also have the option of enabling the auto-suspend timeout (KDE Control Center / Sound & Multimedia / Sound System) and setting it as low 1 second (note that 0 seconds is equal to auto-suspend off).

Artsd will then release the device if it's been idle for that period of time. This is usually sufficient unless you want to play sound in arts and non-arts apps at the same time.

You can also use artsdsp to make esd itself an arts client. On recent FreeBSD 5.x/6.x however, this requires some hacking of the artsdsp script (the threads library must be LD_PRELOADed as well, see attached patch. Replace with libc_r.so.5 on 5.2.1-R and earlier, not tested).

With that modification, run artsdsp esd and test some app that uses esound (like xmms with the esound output plugin enabled). fstat /dev/dsp* should only show artsdsp.
