vlc can uses the ESoundD plugins (if compiled in) - the livna version

http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#ESOUNDApplications
Add this to your .bashrc:
if [ ! -e /tmp/.esd-${UID} ]; then
        ln -fs /tmp/.esd /tmp/.esd-${UID}
fi

Solution consist to add this lines to your .bashrc : (seen
if [ ! -e /tmp/.esd-${UID} ]; then
        ln -s /tmp/.esd /tmp/.esd-${UID}
fi

That
