This looks like an ALSA related problem to me. Do you have a working 
setup of your soundcard (i.e. does sound work with other apps)? Setting 
up sound with yast2 doesn't always work properly, sometimes alsaconf is 
the only way. Getting the latest ALSA and installing according to 
instructions can probably fix the problems.
