That has not been my experience. I removed pulse except that library
and the sound won't work on my laptop unless I do rcalsasound restart.
BTW, I have tried VLC as suggested by another person and that too did
not work.

Mukul,

1) Check is PulseAudio enabled. Use Yast sound module:
YaST > Sound > button Other > PulseAudio configuration
It should say that PulseAudio is not installed.

I did the check and it does say that PulseAudio is not installed.

2) Remove you sound card from YaST sound, close YaST sound, then open
again. This should find and reconfigure your card for current sound
system.

Hi,

I have done this and the sound works (for mplayer, vlc etc., no sound
for videos on youtube through Firefox or Opera) until I reboot the
machine. Once I reboot, the things go back to what they were before I
did step 2.

So a word or two about your hardware could be next step.

lspci
uname -a

But it would be also good to open new thread, with question, and subject like
above. General discussion about operating system will not solve your audio
problem, and it is hard to find your answers in the pile of junk that such
discussions generate.
