Hm... I don't use SuSE (anymore) but I had a similar problem recently with my 
system: all sound was working fine but kdetv didn't seem to work. For me it 
was just a button ("LED") I had to click in the advanced settings of KMix to 
get kdetv sound back.

On my (Gentoo) box with KDE 3.2.1 my KMix suddenly had much more options 
because I switched from OSS to ALSA. Since then I have the "advanced options" 
button in KMix which now allows me to activate or deactivate several things 
of my sound card that I wasn't able to set with OSS. Do you also have that 
"advanced options" button now as well (using ALSA)? If so, just click it and 
try to activate or deactivate the green "LEDs" in there while kdetv is 
running. One of them (on the upper right) enabled my kdetv sound again. I 
can't remember its functionality exactly and I'm not at home right now to 
check for its name/label...
