Since I am getting no error messages in syslog nor from artsmessage, I took a 
look at .xsession-errors after a fresh login.  This is what is in it:

I don't know what it means by Mixer not found.  I can start kmix just fine and 
it appears perfectly OK.  I can open up alsamixer as well and it is OK.  If I 
do an lsmod I see the sound driver is properly loaded.

Then there is the issue regarding konsole_grantpty.  Huh?  NEVER seen this 
before anywhere.  Anyone know what the deal is here?  

Excerpt from .xsession-errors:

By the way, now running alsaconf doesn't give me even temporary sound.  I get 
no sound at all.  I am going to dump the tmb kernel and try another (perhaps 
go back to the 2.4.21-13 kernel from 9.0. 

Anyone?
