Most sound problems are just because the sound system is muted.
Run aumix to set volume levels.

It goes wherever you put it within your home directory. Typically ~/bin , or 
~/local  and No. Programs installed as a user cannot be used by anyone else.
(Well not unlesss you fiddle with permissions and then force the Mandrake 
security system to ignore what you have done)

Yes you can get a link in all your Window Manager Menus, simply by running 
menudrake, defining a menu entry and selecting the option for "all WMs"

What is the application you are trying to install as a user? Any Mandrake RPM 
will install as root, and will automatically add a menu item.
