Hmm, I can not get "None" to stick... it always jumps back to dsp0 when 
I go back to the settings page again??? But I picked an unsed one dsp3, 
and that stuck. I also had a problem with KDE grabbing the sound device 
to use for systems sounds until I went in to KDE control center and told 
it to use the PC speaker.
