Thanks, Lennart, for the help on the sound. It is now working, but at
this point it is still a matter of killing esd each time.

Here is what I did on the command line:

bash (9) $ lsof | egrep 'dsp|PID'
lsof: WARNING: can't stat() ext3 file system /dev/.static/dev
      Output information may be incomplete.
COMMAND  PID    USER   FD  TYPE  DEVICE  SIZE  NODE NAME
esd      4055   pking  5w  CHR   14,3    4740       /dev/dsp
bash (10) $ kill -9 4055

By killing esd, lots of stuff begins to work, including the volume
control on the desktop, which used to snap back to zero if you set it to
anything.

So, if esd is getting in the way, what could be running it? If I do a
"grep esd /etc/init.d/*", I get nothing.
