Not really an error -- if you read the note above the
REMOTE_SOUND_HACKS setting, it mentions a wrapper for ESD so that it
appears to be /dev/dsp. This is a much earlier hack. I have mine
set to "NO" and added into that file
FLASH_SOUND_HACK=YES
Which makes it work nicely.
The only bug I've found is that sound only works for the first person
logging in. A different user cannot have working sound, they must
restart the thin client. It's not too showstopping, but annoying at
times. (We don't have a lab of thin clients, so it hasn't been an
issue really)
