[SLE] My /tmp is growing daily



Starting as abnormal directory my /tmp grows fast until it was again some
5017600 bytes.
When I want to look into this directory with midnight commander it takes its
time to open the directory and what I found that apart from some other
directories, there where 124830 alsa-dmix-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxx files all o
byte. These files only took 11 bytes together but I suppose that just the
administration of 124830 files takes a lot of place.
This alsa-dmix zero file is made sometimes twenty or more times in a minute.

Could somebody explain what is happening?
I am running a fully updated 9.3 and KDE 3.52
