You can check if You have "alsasound" in your boot rc ... Iam not quite
sure if its necessary to be in boot (maybe default would do) but i have
boot and its working quite good :)

You must exorcise any evil proprietary operating systems that possess
any of the computers under your control, and then install a wholly/holy
free operating system, and then only install Free Software on top of
that.

i figured it out. i changed my kde splash theme, then i got this
notification. i changed my theme back to default, and the notification
disappeared.

now, my question is what's wrong with that splash theme...

I get a sound error to.  Things that are not KDE work fine but KDE stuff 
has a problem with sound.  K3b just sort of burps at me instead of 
playing the sounds it used to.  Some of the other programs have similar 
issues.  Now smplayer works just fine.  No errors and it plays sound 
just fine.

I haven't changed my themes in a good while.  I have changed kernels and 
such tho.  Nothing affected the sound tho.
