I tried to send this some time ago. It didn't reach the list. I try 
again. Forgive me if this shows up twice.

I know this isn't K12LTSP spesific, but I think I have seen something
about this on the list during my years here.

I have a Debian Sarge server with ltsp-4.2. It's set up to play sound
with esd. I reuse the settings and my experience from working with this
on K12LTSP.

Now, only the first user to log onto a terminal gets sound. I _know_ I
have seen this before, but I cannot find it.

I googled for it and found the question, but no answer. I quote the
question below, since the problem is the same:

The scenario is this:

> > 1) boot thin client
> > 2) user1 logs on, and sound works, and then user1 logs off.
> > 3) user2 logs on to same thin client, and sound does not work
> > 4) user1 log back on and sound still works
> >
> > So ... a permission issue somewhere, but where?
> >
> > If I reboot the thin client, then sound works for user2 provided 
they are
> > the
> first to log on.  This is very repeatable.  What file/pipe is getting 
locked
> by
> the first user to use sound?


Can anyone please help me with this? School's starting, and I thought I
had all bugs cleaned out...
