Got the same message after upgrade too, so you are not the only one. I have not had time to troubleshoot but I'll post whatever I find as soon as I can.

R.

Update: A quick test revealed that although there is an error message my audio channel (the one being deemed as faulty) works.
Go to System Settings --> Multimedia and test the cards/channels.

i found this in wiki
"Falling back to default" messages when trying to listen to any sound in KDE

When you encounter such messages:

The audio playback device <name-of-the-sound-device> does not work.
Falling back to default

Go to

System Settings > Multimedia

and set the device named "default" above all the other devices in each box you see.

it works with me

This solution works for me as well.

I've got this problem too. But when I click on System Settings > Multimedia, the System Settings window crashes

I got the same problem as kamahl, does anyone have a solution for that??

I have the same problem as you guys also, I put default above everything and still no go. For some reason logging in as root produces sound...I know that's a no no though.

I've installed kdemod-phonon-backend-gstreamer and kdemod-phonon-backend-xine, now the multimedia window dos't crash anymore

I had to reinstall my Arch, and after launching WINE or Skype, all sounds fades somewhere. After I quit that apps still no sound. Just rebooting helps... Can someone help me?

I have same problem. If I launch wine, audio is lost with KDE apps. Even if I quit wine, there is still no sound with KDE. Any ideas how to fix this?
