Sound has never worked well for me in any configuration. That said,

For me, nasd has serious lags with video (2-4 seconds is typical). esd doesn't lag, but does get garbled and doesn't work at all with Realplayer 10. Realplayer 8 does work with esd. Sound is a continuing 'thorn in my side'. I have MPlayer and this regularly crashes Mozilla. There isn't much happiness at NCS wrt sound/video right now.

As above, it appears that RealPlayer 10 will not work with esd. Try RP 8 (or maybe 9).
