We need more information to help you. What, specifically, works? What
doesn't work? Are you saying KDE events don't make sound? Or are you
saying that KDE apps don't make sounds? For example, can you play music
files with noatun or juk?
Also, are you running KDE and Gnome at the same time? If you are, I'm
guessing that the sound daemon in Gnome grabbed the sound device first, and
has it locked. For KDE to play sound, you'll need to stop the Gnome sound
daemon.
