good call

my take here is that there's no real point in using a sound-server 
anymore, unless you use some hackish setup with remote workstation & sound.
may I remind people that esound was included so that multiple 
application could use the sound device at the same time, function which 
is now done directly by Alsa, with it's software mixing functionnalities.
As such, we don't need those network enabled things anymore.

that should be gstreamer, right ?
