+ * SECTION:element-esdmod
+ *
+ * This element outputs sound to an already-running Enlightened Sound Daemon
+ * (ESound Daemon, esd). Note that a sound daemon will never be auto-spawned
+ * through this element (regardless of the system configuration), since this
+ * is actively prevented by the element. If you must use esd, you need to
+ * make sure it is started automatically with your session or otherwise.
+ *
+ * TODO: insert some comments about how sucky esd is and that all the cool
+ * kids use pulseaudio or whatever these days.
