I think I've solved the problem. No, not BT but with a wired connection I do 
now have sound. BT can wait until I need it.

The fix was to build a new system without any extra USE flags, i.e. non other 
than what's in the plasma profile. Now it Just Works.

For completeness, these are the flags I removed from make.conf:

	gpg gpm gstreamer handbook icu postscript pulseaudio qml

I can only suppose that some of those were fighting others. I still have quite 
a few package-specific USE flags; I'll review all those as well.

Thanks to all who helped.
