Nothing that I see that would cause this problem.  It seems to be hinged
on your sound settings.  Why I can't say for sure.  Delete the
sound/system file again, then login, and add the sound monitor applet to
your panel.  Then, launch the apps you want, and save your current
session.  Logout, and log back in.  See if things still work, and see if
you have sound.
