DESCRIPTION

16       esdcompat is a compatiblity script that takes the same arguments as the
17       ESD sound daemon esd(1), but uses them to start a the PulseAudio  sound
18       server with the appropriate parameters. It is required to make PulseAu‐
19       dio a drop-in replacement for esd, i.e. it can be used to  make  gnome-
20       session(1) start up PulseAudio instead of esd.
21
22       It is recommended to make esd a symbolic link to this script.
