Is there any perspective on using arts
A competing proposal I've heard is to just use ALSA directly.
For network stuff having had a further thing I'd implement esd "second
edition"
by taking ESD and replacing all its audio side code with SDL_mixer, which
was written by someone who has a grasp of audio processing, is portable and
can mix multiple channels with fades, some effect and positioning control.
I believe this is orthogonal to something like Helix/GStreamer which
would both output to the sound server, but the maintainers of those
media frameworks probably care about the discussion.
Helix needs 5.1 handling too - thats a lot more fun
