how to get gaim-sound working within KDE?



Dear list,

I would like to ask for some information on how to get gaim-sound working within KDE. ALSA ist configured correctly (alsaconf) and sound works in KDE but not for gaim. When I hit the "test sound" button in the settings sceen of gaim, nothing happens. Volume is turned up.

"How do I get sound to work correctly?" at http://gaim.sourceforge.net/faq.php#q23 says, I need libao and audiofile. libaudiofile0, libarts1-audiofile and libao2 are installed.

I guess, I am missing some more packages, but I have no idea which ones and other threads on the web didn't provide any useful information.

Any help on what I have to consider is appreciated!

Thank you very much!

Ralph
