If you use the OSS audigy driver, then you do not use alsa; alsa and OSS 
are mutually exclusive. Perhaps the artsd server is not starting properly?

You might try logging into another WM that doesn't use artsd (a KDE-only 
feature), and check your sound apps there. If you have Gnome installed, 
you could try that, as it uses esd as its sound server, and can be set to 
emit the same sort of event-based sounds that KDE can. This would help to 
narrow down the problem somewhat.
