This is mostly true - it really depends on the program. The wiki has a
great explaination of how to get sound from Flash with Mozilla/Firefox.
As for the other programs, I set up a bunch of scripts that I have added
to the front of the users path. All scripts are located in
/usr/local/esd-bin/ and each script looks something like this (using the
/usr/local/esd-bin/frozen-bubble one as an example):
#!/bin/sh
if [ "$DISPLAY" != ":0.0" ]; then
echo "running $0 with esd wrapper."
exec esddsp /usr/games/frozen-bubble
else
echo "running $0 without a wrapper."
exec /usr/games/frozen-bubble
fi
echo "end esd wrapper script"
Maybe that will help you out some :-)
