polypaudio?

[Joe Barnett]

I tried to switch from esound to polypaudio, but found that the gnome
system sounds (startup, click on menu, etc) are no longer played when
polypaudio is running.  paplay /path/to/sound.wav works fine, and the
sounds work again when i reinstall esound and remove polypaudio.

is this supposed to work?

Thanks,
Joe

PS.  I thought ubuntu was going to switch from esound to polypaudio
(or at least conisdering it), so why is polypaudio in universe only
(and hence not in bugzilla)?
