Distribution/Version: Gentoo

I've been using esdsink on my computer for the longest time, and while I didn't
notice the correlation at the time, I couldn't really use totem to play movies
because it skipped too many frames. Recently, I enabled alsa's dmix plugin and
switched to alsasink. This completely eliminated the annoying frame skip and
made totem usable. As ESound is part of GNOME, this seems to me like a serious
problem. It kept me from accepting the GST backend forever and might have the
same effect on others.

ESound: 0.2.35
GStreamer: 0.8.10
Gst-plugins: 0.8.8
Totem: 1.0.2
