Dear meep-eep,
I thought it may have been openAL too, but openAL doesn't seem to be on my system. Thanks for your suggestions.
Dear Novus,
Setting the SDL_AUDIODRIVER variable solved the issue. I think SDL was forwarding the audio to ESounD (but I'm not sure -- is there some way to check?). Setting the variable to ALSA made everything sound normal again, but disables the audio-stream mixing ESounD provides. I'm going to check whether my ESounD is setup correctly.
Thanks for your help, folks!
Question: Do you know a permanent way to change the SDL audio driver?
