Does switching SDL from ALSA to the Pulseaudio audio backend help? From the Tux Paint Known Issues page (http://www.tuxpaint.org/docs/known_issues/):

* No sound, too much CPU usage, and/or freeze or crash on exit
- The ALSA sound backend in SDL has problems working with the PulseAudio sound system. Install SDL built against PulseAudio instead of ALSA (which is the default for SDL on Debian and Ubuntu). For example, on Ubuntu or Debian, install the "libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio" package. (See Bug #269082 at Ubuntu Launchpad: 'tuxpaint and other tux SDL driven apps slow down and/or freeze thin client terminals (ltsp)')
