    I already have libesd-alsa0 installed and removed libesd0 (which was
    'rc' and not 'ii' in dpkg info):

    ~$ dpkg -l libesd*
    Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
    | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
    |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:
    uppercase=bad)
    ||/ Name Version Description
    +++-==========================-==========================-====================================================================
    ii libesd-alsa0 0.2.35-2 Enlightened
    Sound Daemon (ALSA) - Shared libraries
    un libesd-alsa0-dev <none> (no
    description available)
    un libesd-dev <none> (no
    description available)
    pn libesd0 <none> (no
    description available)
    pn libesd0-dev <none> (no
    description available)

    Still the behaviour is the same. The problem is that when the first user
    to use esd logs out .esd in /tmp is not removed:
    ~$ ls /tmp/.esd/socket -l
    srwxrwxrwx 1 <user> <user> 0 2004-10-24 20:00 /tmp/.esd/socket

    is still there when the second user logs in to gdm.
