I had exactly the same problem. I finally solved it by manually
installing the kde-multimedia upgrade (apt-get update, then apt-get
install kde-multimedia). After that I was able to install the
remaining upgrades with the normal apt-get upgrade command without
removing all of kde. Once all the upgrades were installed, I had to
delete two files (knotify.eventsrc and knotifyrc) from
~/.kde/share/config. When I restarted kde I had system sounds back as
a normal user. I hope this works for you, too.
