I think this is related to my problem where gnome won't start and arts
dies.
What's starting esd? And why doesn't the daemon just go into background?

I don't know what starts it, but I was seeing the same problem. My
solution was to "mv /usr/bin/esd /usr/bin/esd.broken"
It seems to be impossible to just remove esound because everything,
including that kitchen sink - nautilus, depends on it.
