[Bug 557514] [NEW] [Lucid] Phonon pulseaudio support is broken

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Binary package hint: phonon

Using Kubuntu Lucid beta 1

Under Karmic, if I enable pulseaudio, I get an option for 'Pulseaudio'
in the Phonon configuration in system settings. This configures the xine
backend to use pulseaudio natively.

Under Lucid, the only option I get is 'Playback through the pulseaudio
sound server', which actually uses the ALSA-pulse plugin. This is not
pretty and it's a regression from Karmic. Note that this also happens if
I upgrade Karmic to KDE 4.4.2 using the ppa).

Additionally, a great deal of work has been done recently, mainly by
Colin Guthrie at Mandriva, to integrate pulseaudio properly into KDE.
Both Mandriva and Fedora are including this work in their forthcoming
releases. I have been testing it and it has worked flawlessly. It would
be really great to see this included in Kubuntu.

** Affects: qt4-x11 (Ubuntu)
