ln and cp -s do the same thing.
Both are equally correct. It purely a matter of personal preference on which you use..
Don't you just love Linux?

-s, --symbolic-link
makes symbolic links insted of copying
my guess is that
cp -s == ln -s
so in that case...
they are both equal
I had the same problems after upgrading flac. Create a link in /usr/lib: libFLAC.so.4 ->libFLAC.so.6.0.1. This solved the aforementioned problems.
creating a link.
that would be "ln -s" and not "cp -s", imho
Thank you for the reply. The suggested fix works.
For those that may be new to linux, here is the exact things to do.
Log in as root.
cd /usr/lib
cp -s libFLAC.so.6.0.1 libFLAC.so.4
cd
logout of your root account, and then login to your user account.
KDE's voice will be back.
Thanks!

thank you!
that did solve this problem
Sorry for being so late to chime but I've been busy trying to skull out XML all day and haven't had a chance to check the forum before this.
I did the upgrade last night but didn't notice the problem with the KDE system sounds till I read this thread (I'm now using XFce 95% of the time). Like the rest xmms and other sound apps work - just no system sounds. Everything else appears to running peachy...:)

At this point, I lost my sound, specifically aRts is not running in KDE. So KDE native apps that use aRts, such as noatun, and the KDE sounds that are specific to KDE events, do not work now.
The sound system (alsa) is still working though. Non-KDE apps generate sound perfectly, even when launched from within KDE. Last night I watched "The Day After Tomorrow" with xine, ...no sound issues. But KDE is voiceless.
Checked the obvious such as sound settings, mute, ran alsamixer in a console and verified that something wasn't muted, and verified that my default levels had not been misadjusted...
Thinking I had a system problem, I started gnome (2.8). It has it's own system sounds with no issues, so my problem appears to be KDE specific.
Any ideas anyone?
