Hello,

 same problem with me. I have installed fresh kde 3.3 with all packages 
but I do not have any sound output at all. I did remove knotifyrc file, 
but I still cannot hear anything from xmms, mplayer etc. I also have 
changed kmix volume levels.

pleiades# cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <VIA VT8235> at io 0xe400 irq 10 (5p/1r/0v channels duplex 
default)

I have arts installed too:
pleiades# pkg_info | grep arts
arts-1.3.0,1
artswrapper-1.2.1
kdemultimedia-mpeglib_artsplug-3.3.0
kdemultimedia-xine_artsplugin-3.3.0


 Cheers,

 Martin
