sound on KDE-3.4.1 using kernel-2.6

What does `lsmod` return.
Also try this ---> cat somefile.wav > /dev/dsp it should return some output, 
despite any problems KDE may or may not have.
mpg123 also works well to track down sound issues as it is quite verbose. 

As an aside I once compiled alsa into the 2.6.11 kernel and had similar 
issues.
To fix the issue I had to compile alsa as separate modules and things worked 
fine afterward. The same has held true for the 2.6.12 kernel I am currently 
using in Gentoo.

Good Luck
