This is an issue with ALSA IMHO, it tend to get hiccups and you need to unmute 
master again.

Also KDE 3.5 is mainly unsupported nowadays, all the efforts been put into 
KDE4 and it starts to have most of the things KDE3.5 had, except some multi 
display supports (which has forced me to drop to a one monitor solution).

  Mute and volume controls work fine, but not unmute. It seems like KMix

KMix kan be hooked to different volumes, say your master volume is muted and 
KMix is set to adjust PCM, then it may look like you have max volume and 
unmuted and still not a sound coming out.

Maybe you should change which source it should by default adjust?
