KDE runs as a simple user so there is no way for it to mess up loaded snd modules (thus, udev definitely does not have anything to do with this problem). So there might be only three causes for the problem: 1) on KDE startup some application blocks /dev/dsp (or alsa device directly if you're not using dmix and don't have a sound card which supports input from >=2 sources at once) by openning and not releasing it (likely artsd? ). Try cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp to check if that's the case. 2) kmix or whatever mutes/lowers volume to a minumum of some channels (toggle KMix: Settings -> Configure Kmix -> "Restore volumes on login"). 3) some app messes up ~/.asoundrc on KDE startup (highly unlikely)
