Well before recompiling everything have you looked at the obvious? ie 
alsa defaults to the volume turned off. First thing to do is to know 
what sound system you are using and that the modules are loaded and 
that the volume is not at zero. The system-config should tell you if it 
is using the ALSA or the OSS driver and then arts should be set 
accordingly. Then use kmix or alsamixer to turn the volume up and of 
course in the kde control-centre you want to make sure that you have 
sound notification turned on.
