i dont' think that this will make a difference.
Where do you look for arts output? Amarok: Settings -> Configure
Amarok -> Engine -> Xine -> Output plugin?

BTW: Why do you want arts so badly? Amarok works just fine when using
the OSS ouput plugin, for example. So there's no need to use arts at
all. Same is valid for all other multimedia apps, too.
