The serious reply is: pulesaudio is a vast improvement over esd. (and esd
was a HUGE leap forward in sound on Linux). The current work from the Fedora
crowd (I think much of the pulesaudio dev work is supported by the gnome
devels at fedora) has added much better data throughput controls. These were
designed to reduce/eliminate stutter and jitter in audio feeds. So far it
seems to be a well implemented project.

Since pulseaudio is a (predominately) gnome environment tool (as opposed to
a fedora thing), other distro's should get the new bits shortly into their
update streams.

It sounds all good to me </funny nose glasses>
