Kubuntu implies KDE.  If KDE's sound server timeout is set too high,
it's possible that it could hog the ALSA devices.  I set the timeout
on KDE's sound server to 30 seconds, but I don't even have any KDE
sound events configured.  (Computers should be quiet unless they're
playing music, movies, or games....)

Are there any common elements to when xine stops working?  After the
machine's been through a suspend-to-RAM/resume cycle, or something
like that?
