Because esound has no maintainer, I am copying this ticket to the 
developers' list.

#13848: esound library routine incorrectly identifies DISPLAY on Leopard

      Type:  defect                |      Status:  new
  Priority:  High                  |   Milestone:
Component:  ports                 |     Version:  1.6.0
  Keywords:  audio esound          |
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
  Running Leopard's X11.app the audio/esound port cannot any longer deal
  with a request to play sound on a local machine when code passes the NULL
  parameter to identify the desired server to the esdlib.c library
  functions.  The function esd_open_sound expects a DISPLAY variable to be
  something such as 0:0.  Leopard uses a different scheme.  esd_open_sound
  cannot see DISPLAYs such as /tmp/launch-A6wxg2/:0 as valid.  I have a
  patch that works, but I am not a programmer.  Soemone who understands a
  better way to determine whether the code is running under Leopard should
  fix this.  I have attached my patch.

  This port is not maintained.
