I don't see how this helps. a) My problem was _not_ that some individual applications did not work. My problem was "total loss of sound". For instance, KDE did not make its 'KDE' sound when it started up after I hit startx. I had to run alsaconf to get sound started again. /etc/init.d/alsa stop then start as root did not help... b) It seems to have been a Kmix setting problem. As soon as I went into the kmix setting as pointed out by the other respondent, and unchecked 'Restore volumes on login' which is some kind of kmix bug, (whatever it means :)) I now have full sound (insofar as I checked...). c) I ended up deleting arts (and with it went kde-core). No effect so far. I don't know about your reported bug and I don't think your issues have hit me, for example I just tried xmms and it works fine on my system. Thank you for responding though...
