I don't know what starts it, but I was seeing the same problem. My
solution was to "mv /usr/bin/esd /usr/bin/esd.broken"
It seems to be impossible to just remove esound because everything,
including that kitchen sink - nautilus, depends on it.

I'm seeing the same thing. When I kill esd, and then later on launch
something. It will restart esd again. Have to go back and kill it again.
