9 I asked on pulseaudio-discuss and they could help me: It is a bug in Phonon
10 4.4.1 and the two patches mentioned in the post by Colin Guthrie [1] solve the

15 Finally KDE + PulseAudio rock! Despite the huge amount of criticism of
16 PulseAudio on this list it really works good for me and I am quite happy :)
