Re: audio device sharing
IIRC you can use esd with any software that uses /dev/dsp output, by calling
the program using the esd wrapper or something. I once ran winamp (with
wine) through esd. or am I confusing it with esound ?
I once read somewhere about the same capability in arts by using some
wrapper - but can't locate info about it right now.
