I am running KDE in X 3.3.6, and it does appear to be starting all kinds of funny things (I am new to KDE so unaware of the daemons that are run by it). A ps ax shows up things like kaudioserver, kwmsound, maudio -media 917512 - but other X apps work fine, like XMMS, or bzflag (using native audio). > I have some extra libs added in /usr/compat/linux/lib (or /.../usr/lib, don't > remember), among those are libaudiofile, esound and libmikmod.

Those that do have linuxulator sound working, perhaps can you provide a ls -al of your /compat/linux/dev..?
