I haven't followed this thread, so... do you have esd running? gdm usually brings it up I think and it would conflict with alsaconf running -- usually there is a warning that you have soudn processes running. so when you leave gdm, esd gets killed and alsaconf works, then you go back in and esd reappears, hogs up the audio device and xmms stops working. just a thought.
