hallo,

i have a small problem with xmms and esound. i use kde and want to run esound as soundserver.

when i start esound manually. then i start xmms with the esound output plugin. first it works porperly, but when i stop xmms or skip some songs forward the esound deamon gets quit.

what can i do that this doesn't happen??

thank you for your help... :-)

ok
this may or may not help: do the old ALSA thing
go to your console, or Terminal as root
<alsamixer>
use your arrow keys to adjust your sound system prefs
<alsactl store>
and reboot. if this doesn't work, i suggest you come back here and insult me for me newbie-ness.
oh. and make sure your kernel is OSS enabled, and has your specific driver compiled.
seriously. this should do it.
luck -O.

hallo,

thank you, your tip worked. Now i can use the esound daemon easily and it doesn't quit anymore.
