I have never bee able to get the sound working right in KDE for my
normal user account. I know it has to be permissions related somehow,
since it seems to work for root. I've got the same permissons you do
in /dev/sound, and my user account is also in the wheel group. I
wonder if it matters what your "primary" group is, as mine is (or was)
NOT wheel.
