10 Hmm. I also don't have a list of back-ends. But sound works. I
11 noticed that media-sound/phonon-4.3.0 installs files in /usr/lib/kde4/
12 instead of /usr/kde/4.2/lib64/kde4/ (which would be the correct location
13 with kdeprefix I guess.)
14
15 Try linking /usr/kde/4.2/lib64/kde4/ to /usr/lib/kde4/ and see if that
16 works?
17
18 cd /usr/lib
19 mv kde4 kde4-backup
20 ln -s /usr/kde/4.2/lib64/kde4 kde4
21
22 Then re-emerge media-sound/phonon and restart X. I have this setup and
23 sound is working, but as I said, no back-ends are listed. I'm on OSS4
24 though, not ALSA, maybe this has something to do with it.
