I had the same problems. My first solution was to install all gstreamer
releated stuff and use the gstreamer engine in amarok which worked. After
reading the thread mentioned before (with the link to the RestrictedFormats
wiki) I installed the libxine-extracodecs and the akode-mpeg package (not
sure if both are needed) and now amarok works with the xine engine also.
Hope this helps
