Since the update I have not been getting sound notifications from 
konversation.  Checking KMix, I found that setting the volume to 50% or more 
gave me a feedback scream, and I couldn't hear anything on lower settings.  I 
moved on to systemsettings > MultiMedia.  

Now the only out put device I have is 'Internal Audio Analog Stereo' and Test 
makes no sound.  I've changed the backend from Xine to GStreamer, and now the 
Test button does play - but I still have to keep kmix below 50%.  Is GStreamer 
now the preferred backend?

Is there no way, any more, of configuring channels?  Why do I get feedback at 
such a low level?
