[K12OSN] [OT] sound with esd in ltsp4.2

[Trond Mæhlum]

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...
