Oh, silly me. Apologies to all. (Donn thanks)
The Kmix PCM level was way down low after installation. Don't know why. 
But it didn't affect the other sound applications except in browser 
sound applications. Just a tweak of the PCM level resolved the issue.
Much ado about nothing. Somebody should inform the guys that PCM level 
should not be turned so low at installation.

Sorry to waste your time.
