Well, I use KDE and XMMS and after logging out (with the 'restore session ...'
option) and logging in again XMMS appears but also complains about accessing
the sound device if a try to play something. Closing XMMS and restarting it
gets it working again! It seems not a driver problem but a problem with the
(KDE and/or Gnome) sound servers.
