This seems to be a kernel bug. If you revert to kernel 2.4.19 it works fine. Other things to try: in the KDE Sound Server config dialog, try putting the buffer size at minimum in the Audio Input/Output tab, or selecting 8-bit for sound quality. That should make it work, though you'll get very choppy audio when switching screens or even just using scrollbars.
As I said, using kernel 2.4.19 (which is what I'm doing now) solves the problem.
