DESCRIPTION

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