You are using KDE 3 and you keep losing sound. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

KDE 3.x uses the aRts sound system. In earlier versions there were a number of problems, but in recent years the only problem remaining seems to be that aRts hangs on to the sound system when it has finished with it. To cure this, use kcontrol > Sound & Multimedia. Towards the bottom of the General tab there is a setting for 'Auto-suspend if idle after:' Set this to 1 second.
