I guess this bug has been filed after the removal of the dependency on
pulseaudio-esound-compat.

LTSP supports pulseaudio since years (for both thin clients and diskless 
workstations). 

LTSP_ALSA_DEFAULT is set to 'pulse' and PULSE_SERVER 
to something like 'tcp:<client-ip>:<port>'

It's rather about the compatibility of programs using esound or even 
older ones using /dev/dsp (audio OSS).

IMO the remaining cleanup things still to do are:

(1) drop /usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/debian-edu-ltsp-audiodivert 
    because gtick (metronome) is the only program listed but doesn't 
    need to be diverted as /dev/dsp isn't used anymore.

(2) remove the line containing ESPEAKER in 
    /etc/desktop-profiles/debian-edu-config.listing
