Are you perhaps running KDE4 on a 64-bit machine?
I lost sound some days ago, under KDE4, KDE3 and GNOME desktops,
2009.1 with all updates. I suspect an update broke something.
I have dropped back to 2008.1 for this and other reasons, so I
have not tried to track out the problem in any great detail.
Going through the trouble-shooting instructions found under
Configure you sound system in MCC provides nothing useful. All
seems ok.
When started from within a terminal window under KDE3 I got an
error message about multithreading not being supported when I
started Amarok. No error message for juk, rhythmbox, or
audacious, and the status bar would show progress but no sound.
Under 2008.1 (using arts, not pulseaudio) I have no problems, so
I assume it is not the sound card.
Cheers!
