Back to badness here. Here's what I've done:

Logged off Gnome
cp'd ~/.gnome/sound/oldsystem system
Edited system to have what your suggested. Here is the result:
~/.gnome/sound $ ls
total 2
-rw-r--r--  1 stacey  stacey  63 Dec 30 04:19 oldsystem
-rw-r--r--  1 stacey  stacey  64 Apr  6 23:23 system
stacey@Demon ~/.gnome/sound $ cat oldsystem 

[settings]
start_esd=true
event_sounds=true
restore_gmix=true
~/.gnome/sound $ cat system 

[settings]
start_esd=true
event_sounds=true
restore_gmix=false
~/.gnome/sound $

I then logged off the system
Logged back onto system
Ran "startx"

Delay is back to 2 - 2.5 minutes
Sill no sound when in X

This isn't good.

Regards,

Stacey
