That would probably be the problem; I don't have the last part in my
/usr/lib/menu/kmp3 file (the part that says kde_mimetype=.....)
Has that been changed in more recent packages?  Or do I just need to
edit the file myself? The player works fine, and sound is configured
correctly, that is everything seems to be working (however, I don't have
a folder /usr/share/sndconfig on my system).
