[Kde-nonlinux] KDE No sound for Open BSD

Hello everyone.
I am trying out OpenBSD (I use typically use Linux, usually Gentoo). I
had installed 3.6 on my laptop, then had to put it away for a while,
when I got back to it 3.7 was out so I upgraded (which upgraded my KDE
as well from 3.2 to 3.3).
Neither on 3.6 nor on 3.7 was I able to get the sound working while in
KDE. I am certain that the sound works fine, because I can use waveplay
to play wave files from the command line.
To rule out permission issues, I am running this all as root. Normally,
I wouldn't do this.
It is only in KDE that my sound does not work. Artsd is running in the
background, and by default points to /dev/sound and uses OSS. I have
tried about every permutation I can think of in the settings on the control
panel, and nothing works.
I get no errors if I leave these defaults. Sometimes I get a
high-pitched squeak, but usually I get nothing out of the speakers.
When I click "test" on the sound system control panel in KDE, I hear
nothing, but this prints up on the vt where I started X:
Server STatus: Running, autosuspend disabled
real-time status: no real-time support
server buffer time: 40.5349 ms
buffersize multiplier: 1
minimum stream buffer time: 40.6349 ms
auto suspend time: 0 s
audio method: oss
sampling rate 44100
channels: 2
sample size 16 bits
duplex: half
device: /dev/sound
fragments 7
fragment size: 1024
I have visited http://docs.kde.org/development/en/kdebase/faq/sound.html and tried everything. No dice.
The peculiar thing is that when I ran artsd -l 0, and used artsplay to play a wav file, I still got nothing (or a high-pitched, barely audible squeal) -- and yet there was absolutely no error output on the terminal I was running artsd -l 0 on.
UnixManager: got notifyIO
socketconnection created, fd = 11
search playobject, extension = wav
creating Arts::audiofilePlayObject to play file /usr/local/share/sounds/KDE_Window_Sticky.wav
loading wav: /usr/local/share/sounds/KDE_Window_Sticky.wav
frame size: 2
channels: 1
bits: 16
job finished
So arts thinks that it did its job just fine (even though it clearly didn't). I can bypass arts and play the same file with waveplay without any problems.
What am I missing here? I have spent days fiddling with this, but I
haven't a clue. What does aRts want from me?
Thank you for you help.
Chris
