I don't know anything specific about Bemused and Nokia, but here are
some general pointers about sound problems:
1) Maybe there are hung-up processes blocking the sound device. You can
check this with "lsof -w | grep /dev/snd"
2) Try to see if alsa is still OK (any error messages?):
/etc/init.d/alsa force-reload
3) Use "alsamixer" to make sure that the volume is turned up.
4) Use "speaker-test" to get some low-level sound output.
5) If 1-4 work you can check in the KDE Control Center > Sound if KDE
can play the test sound.
If it looks like you might be having a problem with alsa it might help
to run "alsaconf" as root.
