[gentoo-user] kmix/sound broken

[James]

kmix will not run. The icon just bounces and then terminates.

Previously, installed kde4 using kde-meta. Rebuilding kde-meta
does not go into all of the individual packages.

I've never had trouble with kmix before, so any guidance
as to what package(s) to rebuild, would be appreciated.

Rebuilding kmix alone did not solve the problem...
(emerge -1Dv kmix)

Ideas or suggestions are most welcome. The machine runs
an identical kernel as another machine (actually just
about everything is identical, particularly the hardware)
and kmix is fine on that machine. Sound is also broken
on the system where kmix is broken.


ideas?

What does kmix and kmix --keepvisibility show when you run them from a 
terminal?

Take a look at ~/.xsession-errors

That's where most (all?) of KDE does its logging.
