I think this is the same issue being described in the current thread "Apps
hanging around."  

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/edubuntu-users/2008-August/thread.html#4345

If you disable sound on a thin client, you'll probably find the issue goes
away.  That's not a fix of course, but it should tell us whether you have
the same issue or if yours is different.

We're going to have to get some programming muscle to sort this out.  It
looks like an issue with libsdl and esound/pulseaudio to my somewhat
untrained eye.
