I'm using esd myself (it's very useful if you're listening to music all
the time, and still want to hear ICQ "oh-oh's" and beeps of various sorts),
and I'm not using Gnome or KDE. Esd is a seperate thing, and many programs
on modern Linux distributions support playing audio with it (e.g., xmms,
licq, etc.) - so you can use it even if you don't want to use Gnome.
