saslauthd is running and the only errors I get are:

It might be that suse's postfix does not allow plain authentication. It's got to be encrypted, or over an encrypted connection. I don't remember if it was in 8.2 or later when they did that change.
Well, I will eventually be setting up TLS encryption for the session, but I'd like to be able to test and make sure SMTP AUTH is working first, it's more of a pain to debug problems when you have 2 variables, as opposed to just one. Having to worry about SASL *and* TLS problems at the same time (possible) is not what I would prefer.
