In computing, the Enlightened Sound Daemon (ESD or EsounD) is the sound server for Enlightenment and GNOME. It mixes several sound streams into one for output. It can also manage network-transparent audio. ESD is maintained as part of the GNOME project. Alternative sound daemons include JACK Audio Connection Kit (which does not provide network transparency, but netjack can), aRtsd and PulseAudio.
