Are you using the alsa-oss compatibility library?  Are you getting
complaints from the window manager about being unable to find /dev/dsp?
With some versions of KDE it depends on libasound.so.1 whereas recent
0.9.x versions of ALSA provide libasound.so.2.  What I did as a
temporary solution is made a link from libasound.so.2 -> libasound.so.1.  
In general you should not do this because the major verison is
different, but I did it and it work fine for me.  I got some
occasional errors from KDE apps.  Hope this helps.
