        I also have had problems with xmms. It was working
beautifully for a little while, and now it coughs every time I try to
play a file. On the other hand, X11amp works great on the exact same
files. All other routes to create sound (cdplay, mpg123, etc) also
work fine. I have noticed that, at times, esd will start up with a
"stale unix socket found indicating esd is already running", and
sound becomes erratic after this. This occurs consistently, even
from reboot. Can you confirm/deny? This has been bugging me, and
upgrading esound did not help.

Windows is not the answer. Windows is the question.
: The answer is No.
