If you find a proper answer to this question, please let me know too!
:-) I would rather not have to use xmms...

I'm not sure about your compile errors, but I believe that KDE just
hands the files off to ARTS to decode and play them. (Not 100% sure,
but I think this is the case.) So if you want to add mp3 support back
into KDE, you will have to recompile the ARTS package with mp3 support
enabled.
Once you do this, I am not sure if you will or will not have to
recompile anything else to be aware of the new support you have added
into ARTS....
Let me know if you get it working! :-)
