Ok, I found that artsd (the kde sound server) was restarting itself every 4 
seconds, so this caused the system interrupt (how by the way) and after 
disabling it the system behaves normally again.
But I think this all is my fault because noatun can't find the required 
libvorbis any more and is causing artsd to fail.

Xmms is still working fine with pcm, so I think everything is fine.

SOrry for the noise,
