See below in the thread, we can't because the libgnome API exposes
esound internals.

It's been deprecated for a while already. See:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/references#api-platform

And from the API docs:
"
These functions also allow for the fact that no sound may be supported
on the current platform.
"

So if your application _required_ to have sound working, then it was
broken in the first place...
