Thanks Rex.  I have been somewhat determined to make it work since I don't see 
near as much evidence of the gored ox with f10, and in truth, nearly 
everything does work, except the sound effects for kde, they sound like they 
are coming from a set of headphones, in the next room, not this one.

With 3 audio systems installed, the usual on a high priced asus mainboard, and 
an audigy2(not the stripped 'live' model) and apparently it has found an audio 
system on the HD-2400 Pro video card too, I suppose kde's output is miss-
directed somehow.  But, I removed the module build for all the others except 
for the audigy2 thinking that would force everything to use the audigy2.  No 
effect other than a constant nag from kde asking if I want it to forget the 
other stuff, and I click yes & check the don't nag me again box.  But it does, 
everytime I startx.  I even have jack installed and have played the 10,000 
monkeys thing configuring it, nothing helps.  Shrug.  Everything else works.
