 You need to find out why it's failing. Perhaps you cannot write to the
 /tmp/.esd/ folder (perhaps it exists and is owned by another user?).

 Also PulseAudio should be creating per-user esd socket directories since
 many versions ago. There is a configure option to use the global option,
 so perhaps you should investigate whether you have this option enabled
 when you compiled PulseAudio?

 Also, if you do not need ESD protocol, simply don't load it :D

 This kind of discussion/help is much better handled by the mailing list -
 Trac is a bug tracking tool, not a support tool. If you need help, please
 post to the mailing list or pop along to the IRC channel :)
