This is a current "ls -l" version of that directory

I brought it "amarok --debug" up and it still has the same 20 files

I have also noticed that kdeinit4 does not exit amarok (ps ax | grep 
amarok) when it has been Exited correctly.
6620 ?         S      0:00 kdeinit4: kio_trash [kdeinit] trash 
local:/tmp/ksocket-donn/klauncherMT6376.slave-socket 
local:/tmp/ksocket-donn/amarokyJ6602.slave-socket
  6621 ?        S      0:00 kdeinit4: kio_file [kdeinit] file 
local:/tmp/ksocket-donn/klauncherMT6376.slave-socket 
local:/tmp/ksocket-donn/amarokZb6602.slave-socket

Also to benefit others - openSuSE need to have /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer 
set to 666 to work.  And you need to be added to /etc/group under audio 
and others.    /etc/group - audio:x:17:pulse,donn
