Chapter 1. Introduction
So you've got your (insert sound playing program here) cruising
at full tilt, and you want to check out this cool Monty Python
quote, but you don't want to kill the original sound?  This is
just the fix, with a little tweaking, of course. =P
The Enlightened Sound Daemon can mix several audio streams into
one sound device.  It will mix in pre-loaded samples, too.  Want
to play a frightening sound whenever the user presses the
"go" button?  No problem, just cache it, and play it
back by sample id number.
1.1. Caveats
This is hot off the presses software, get it while it's still
hot.  It's still got a ways to go yet.  Be prepared for a
bumpy ride.  Any and all reasonable patches and improvements
accepted.  I expect the communication protocol to change at
least once more before it hits 1.0.
