I think its because pulse replaces the sound card devices with a 
pulsaudio device as specified in /etc/alsa/pulse-default.conf

pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio -vv

will kill pulse and run it in the foreground. Check the right sink is 
selected in kmix

If you can't get t working file a pulseaudio bug in bugzilla and I'll 
assign it to myself. Reply with the link. Leave /etc/pulse/default.pa as 
it was installed.

Attach as much as you can from the links I posted. ie.
  - output of alsa-info
  - output of pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio -vv
  - sudo egrep 'jack|alsa|pulse' /var/log/yum.log

You can check vlc output option in Tools -> Options. There are some 
other things you can try listed here whihc hare KDE specific:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/KDE_PulseAudio_Integration

After that we can look at getting jack working.
