Can't create /tmp/.esd

Reported by: miffe Owned by: lennart
Milestone: Component: module-esound-*
Keywords: Cc: mikael_miffe_eriksson@…, matteo-ml@…

Description

If /tmp/.esd can't be created. Use /tmp/.esd-$UID instead. It's what esound does.

If I move /tmp/.esd to /tmp/.esd-1000 sound in flash in firefox starts working through pulseaudio.

Sorry. "It's what esound does." is not true. That's what the Ubuntu-patched version of esd does. I am no Ubuntu user. The ubuntu guys are welcome to supply me a patch that is reasonably clean to merge.

I am marking this as wontfix now, since we follow ESDs upstream behaviour. Feel free to reopen this issue if you can provide me with a clean patch which includes a configure check to detect these patched ubuntu systems.
