I had, and still occasionally have the same problem. I would consider this a workaround, that works at least for me.

1. For each of these applications you may have to go and change audio output and try what is the best one for you (usually the old OSS will work).

2. What also works: as a root, type alsa-init, as most likely something killed alsa.

I'll be back to see if this helped, and also to see if somebody has a better solution.
