[SDL] SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_AUDIO) crash

[Martin Donlon]

Karl,
  It does look like a Esound problem, you could probably try several things
though.

Explicitly tell SDL to use esd (export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=esd).
Try with esd both running and not running
Upgrade you esd version.
Make sure you don't have ESPEAKER set.
Disable esd in SDL by passing configure --enable-esd=no
