So esound if off my Why do you uninstall the lib but still keep parts of it? I would suggest that you simply uninstall it (without putting parts of it back) and then do a "revdep-rebuild -p" to see if there're other binaries that are still linked to the esd stuff (assuming you use Gentoo's portage and don't manually install stuff that isn't in Gentoo's package information database). If so, leave away the "-p" and let Gentoo rebuild the packages (including GM!). > system but gnomemeeting still starts. But now gnomemeeting doesn't find > a free /dev/sound/dsp or whatever.

Well, I don't have a lot of experiences with artsd so I can't tell your what the problem with artsdsp is. But as Damien said, artsd and especially esd have their obvious problems and I currently can't give you any other advice than not using the sound daemons if you don't actually need them. Even if they worked, they would add unwanted latency to the audio-traffic due to the non-hardware mixing which is poison for every VoIP-connection.
