Hi all,

I have noticed that when KDE starts up the sound system works just 
fine (When I switch desktops, my  machine makes a cute little 'quack' 
sound).

After some (long) time, it stops and the following messages are sent 
to .xession-errors:

Unable to open file /usr/share/sounds/KDE_Desktop3.wav

I can:
cat /usr/share/sounds/KDE_Desktop3.wav > /dev/dsp 

Sorry, that plays garbage, should have read:
play cat /usr/share/sounds/KDE_Desktop3.wav -d /dev/dsp




and I hear the ever familiar 'quack' sound, so the file is definately 
there and valid.

I have tried restarting the sound server from the KDE control centre, 
but still no joy.
Logging out of KDE and back in again fixes the problem.

Any ideas?

Andy
