VMWare, ESD and XMMS?

["Robert L. Harris" <Robert L Harris rdlg net>]

  I'm running a debian sid box.  I can load up gnome+sawfish and play music
just fine.  When I try to load sound in VMWare it says the device, /dev/dsp
is busy.  If I do an "esdctl off" sound becomes available to the VMWare 
again.  I tried "esdctl unlock" but no luck.  I'm using the OSS drivers
built into the kernel.

Any thoughts?
