pulseaudio: I know nothing and hope to keep my life that way. :)
If the aplay command responds then you have ALSA installed. (I
thought ALSA and pulseaudio were incompatible.)
Try this:
alsactl init
Also in KControl->Sound & Multimedia->Sound System, verify the
sound system is enabled in the General tab, then look in the
Hardware tab for the audio device selection.
