FWIW, in Red Hat 6.0. it is located in /usr/bin

The Red Hat startkde file if different. Here is what I have:
----
# Start the common desktop tools in the background.
# The sleeps reduce disk usage during startup.
# kaudioserver will put itself in the background automagically.
# Only start up sound services if there is a soundcard configured.
. /etc/sysconfig/sound
if [ "$CARDTYPE" != "" ]; then
sleep 1 ; kaudioserver
(sleep 1 && exec kwmsound) &
fi
----
As you can see, nothing is commented out. In Red Hat 6.0 there is no such
file as /etc/sysconfig/sound. It's /etc/sysconfig/soundcard, and I did make
that change in my startkde file. It didn't fix the problem.
This isn't a big thing, and I can probably live with it until I upgrade to
6.1. Moral of the story: don't mix RPMs from different versions.
Of course, I am still open to suggestions :)
Regards,
Caity
