Sound problem

[Strake]

When i log in (using kdm) and kde (version 3.3) starts, i get the following message (note the dialog box's title bar says "Informational - artsmessage"):

Sound server informational message:
Error initializing sound driver:
Device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such device)
The sound server will continue, using the null output device.

My sound card is: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 0a)
I am running debian 3.1 stable (Sarge).
