Same here (0810 Beta2). When I try and load kmixer i get a device driver error.. In LMCE I have audio though (SPDIF/Coax). No idea why...

Same problem here. i'm trying to run smplayer under KDE Desktop, but there is no sound. Opening terminal and running alsamixer, i get the following message: cannot open mixer: No such file or directory.
Under UI, Media -> Video, i can play videos (pluto-xine) with sound.
Anyone knows how to have sound under KDE Desktop?
TIA

Yes, but it didn' t help.
under sudo su, calling mplayer under kde desktop, brings sound and subtitles on x264 and other .mkv files, but when calling smplayer, sound does not shows up....
