There are a number of issues involving sound on Hoary Hedgehog (5.04). This outlines some fixes for some common problems.

=== Firefox and Flash player sound ===
 * This fix is to make sound play with the flash plugin
 * sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libesd.so.0 /usr/lib/libesd.so.1 (in the console, of course)

=== XMMS ===
 * press ctrl+p and select libesdout.so as the output plugin and click apply.

=== Xine: ===
 * switch level_experience to Master of all known bla-bla-bla...etc...
 * goto audio
 * audio driver: (alsa or oss) (alsa was the first to work, now they both work)
 * oss audio device number (1 or 0) (1 was the first to work, but now 0 is working to)
 * offset for digital passthrough ( 0 )
 * always resample to this rate ( 0 )
 * enable resampling (auto)
 * go ok and restart xine.
 * insert a DVD and press g to show the controls.
 * now click in the pseudo-up arrow left to AUD: and put it to 0 or 1 (1 was once again the first to work, but now its even working with auto ( 0 i suppose).

=== Polypaudio: ===
 * Installing polypaudio and replacing esound as your sound server also seems to work.

=== For all other probs try: ===
 * in a Terminal, fuser /dev/dsp (the process that is using the sound system - my system nx7010)
 * in a Terminal, kill [number of process given by fuser command]
