Marc, thanks for the link to the options for alternative builds; I'll
give it a try. For now , however, the issue is not about the
(non-)compatibility of a .21 server and a .22 client, but the fact that
frontend is killing the sound! Here the test again and the
mythfrontend.log attached:

1) no computer on my network except the marmic netbook with the mythtv-frontend 
on it. I.e. there is no backend server for the frontend to find, therefore 
mythtv version of a non running server is irrelevant
2) a have a cacophonie of a simultaneous youtube video and a rhythmbox radio 
running
3) I start mythtv-frontend --> the sound goes off, complete silence, no 
crackling, nothing
4) mythtv displays language choice; 3x ESC to exit mythtv-frontend. verifiied 
by ps -A that it is not running any more
5) sound remains off. restarting rhythmbox does not bring the sound back; in 
fact it tells me that it is running, but nothing audible. likewise, no sound in 
skype
6) sound is back after rebooting

doesn't look like the log file has any useful iinformation.
mythwelcome.log file is also created, but is empty
