One more piece of information for those that want to know is that if you run (soundwrapper xmms) which is what kde (/usr/share/applnk) runs then you get **Warning** MCOP ObjectManager: can't find implementation for Arts::Interface Repo. Segmentation fault You've probably found a bug in XMMS, please visit http://www.xmms.org/bugs and fill out a bug report. Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x533)! Segmentation fault But if you run just xmms from the command line then it starts fine with no problems.
