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?
