I am having problems hearing sound. YaST has detected my soundcard and it seems to be working. However I have to turn up the volume to full to barely hear the sound. I mean if there is any noise in the background I cant hear anything.
Try this... open YaST, go to Hardware > Sound card. Select your sound card, and down in the bottom right, there is a button... click it and select Volume. Adjust the volumes and test. Click finish when you're done.
Now when I log in as a 'normal' user I cannot seem to find the KMixer icon in the system tray area.
Did you launch KMix as a normal user? If you didn't start it (or you exited it before logging out), it will not be there. It should be in the program menu under Multimedia.
I had a low volume issue also when I first installed 10.3 on this box. iirc, it turned out to be the volume on the "front speakers" being turned down to half volume. So on the main volume control, it was showing full volume, but if you click on the mixer sub-control one of the volume sliders was only half way up.
