Also try this ---> cat somefile.wav > /dev/dsp it should return some output, despite any problems KDE may or may not have.
mpg123 also works well to track down sound issues as it is quite verbose.
As an aside I once compiled alsa into the 2.6.11 kernel and had similar issues.
To fix the issue I had to compile alsa as separate modules and things worked fine afterward. The same has held true for the 2.6.12 kernel I am currently using in Gentoo.
Good Luck

KDE can use ALSA for it's sound system, arts. There is more information on
sound troubleshooting here:
