1. Strange: While v5 workes fine for me, I have no sound with v6.
Debug tells nothing but:

--------
chris@max:~/freeciv/snd6> civclient -d 4
...
3: Initializing sound using stdsounds.spec...
4: inputfile: opened "data/stdsounds.spec" ok
3: Reading file "data/stdsounds.spec"
4: inputfile: closing "data/stdsounds.spec"
4: inputfile: sub-closing "data/stdsounds.spec"
4: inputfile: sub-closed ok
4: inputfile: closed ok
4: New hash table with 193 buckets
4: Hash duplicates during build: 0
2: For sound support, install either esound or SDL_mixer
2: Esound: http://www.tux.org/~ricdude/EsounD.html
2: SDL_mixer: http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer/index.html
3: color system booted ok.
...
-------

The esound daemon isn't started, but when I start it manually,
nothing changes.

2. The audio option conflicts with the autoconnect option:

-------
chris@max:~/freeciv/snd6> LANG= civclient -a
Missing argument for "--audio".
