I'm not using KDE.  And I have never manipulated any audio settings at  
all on this machine.  This is a fresh out of the box squeeze install.   
These messages showed up on the first reboot after installing.

That's why I marked it "grave" -- it makes the default configuration  
unusable by normal non-guru users.
