Package: amarok-xine
Version: 1.3.8-1
Severity: normal

I don't know how xine/esd is supposed to be used, but amarok certainly
doesn't tell me when I try to use it. If I'm using, for example,
xine/alsa and try switching to esd, an error message reading "xine was unable 
to initialize any
audio-drivers." appears when I apply. Then a new error message appears
reading "Could not launch the mail client: [...] Could not find 'kmail'
executable." Then new windows identical to this one start appearing and
amarokapp starts forking infinitely. Unless kmail is installed. I'm
going to send the mail generated upstream.
Attached is the content of that mail.

This reproduces on both of my Etch boxes. However I've found a way to
avoid it and actually use the xine/esd engine. I just have to start esd
on the command line. I don't use GNOME and have no idea how esd is
supposed to be started.
