If people have issues with the existing sound daemons, their time could almost certainly be better spent working on the implementations /behind/ the APIs instead of creating the sound library du jour. It seems a terrible waste of programmer time to try to maintain as many as four library layers interposed between Wine programs and the audio hardware.
IIRC, gstreamer is a audio video framework, that provides data in and *synchronized* audio and video out. So you should not compare it with esound, alsa etc but with xine-lib or something like that. They just provide autio out for those drivers.
