It's probably muted, check your ALSA settings in KMix. Normally, the sound
hardware is supposed to be unmuted by the init scripts (ALSA defaults to
all muted), but that got broken by an ALSA change. The initscripts package
has been fixed in yesterday's Rawhide, but the fix didn't make the F10Beta
cut.
You were right. I had pushed the volume slider up, but hadn't opened the full
mixer, so hadn't seen the mute checkmarks.
The result, then, is that .ogg files play in Dragon Player and Juk, but I
can't get any sound out of amarok.
