Not a lot to go on here, but the obvious question is "What changed?" Getting sound applications to behave with each other and sound mixer daemons (e.g. artsd and esd) can be a wicked pain in the ass, and probably will be for a good while to come. A good place to start is to try mpg123 BEFORE starting X; if that works, then it's probably an issue of this ilk. But since your sound card apparently works according to the soundserver test in KDE, it's not a problem with your sound card; I'm guessing that you switched to KDE and only later noticed problems with your sound apps.
