*Something* is telling mysql to use /tmp/mysql.sock for the socket, even 
though you've specifically started it with  /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.

Is mysql running?

% ps auxw | grep mysqld

If it *is* running, paste the line from ps so we can see all the 
parameters.  Something like this should work:
% ps auxwwwwwwww | grep mysqld

Here's mine (on FreeBSD, and I obfuscated the hostname in the pid):

ps -auxwwwwwwww | grep mysqld
root      166  0.0  0.0   644  252 con- I    14Apr05   0:00.01 /bin/sh 
/usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql --datadir=/var/db/mysql 
--pid-file=/var/db/mysql/myhost.pid
mysql     221  0.0  8.3 283848 86964 con- S    14Apr05 449:46.09 
/usr/local/libexec/mysqld --basedir=/usr/local/ --datadir=/var/db/mysql 
--user=mysql --pid-file=/var/db/mysql/myhost.pid

}find / -name mysql.sock
/tmp/mysql.sock

I'm using the default socket location, and I haven't had any problems.
