Hi,
  that would make more sense! :)  Unfortunately, that had already occured
to me.  Not only did I dispel alsa-lib, alsa-driver-virmidi (the one I
used) and "cast -r -c esound" before, I subsequently did a complete
"sorcery rebuild" and am still stuck with this libasound.la problem.

  Can anyone think of a reason that applications like gedit2 and
gnome-session keep referencing libasound.la?  I would think they would all
speak with esound via some API and esound would be in charge of alsa.
