Version: (using KDE 4.1.0) OS: Linux Installed from: SuSE RPMs Following hardware does not work under Phonon. My platform is OpenSUSE 11.0 with the latest updates. KDE4 4.1.0. The device is listed but I receive an error stating that Phonon does not work, falling back and it still does not work. I found the tip stating the user should be a member of the audio group but that did not help either. I could not find this hardware in the hardware database so I figured it would be helpful to submit it as the "Get Involved" link suggested. /proc/asound/cards: 0 [SN25P ]: ICE1724 - Shuttle SN25P Shuttle SN25P at 0xa000, irq 18 /proc/asound/pcm: 00-02: ICE1724 Surrounds : ICE1724 Surround PCM : playback 2 00-01: IEC1724 IEC958 : IEC1724 IEC958 : playback 1 00-00: ICE1724 : ICE1724 : playback 1 : capture 1 /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#?-?: 0-0/0: VIA Technologies VIA1617A PCI Subsys Vendor: 0x0000 PCI Subsys Device: 0x0000 Revision : 0x00 Compat.

- Look in systemsettings / sound. Is the correct device above the others (if there are several) ? - On the "Backend" tab, is Xine on the top ?
Pasting the content of the emails received directly : [paste #1] Attached is a screen shot of the settings. I am not smart enough to know which should be where. Also, in the "Bankend" tab, the only option is GStreamer. I am off to look to see what I am missing. [paste #2] Ok, now I feel stupid. I did a search on Xine and found the xine-phonon-backend and installed it. It is at the top of the backend list and I no longer have the error. And the latest Amarok for KDE4 works. So no bug, atleast on phonon's part. It should probably be a dependency within OpenSUSE but phonon did nothing wrong. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! --- Matthias, do you have a dup of this or can it be closed with WORKSFORME ?
Created attachment 26933 [details] systemsettings/sound as seen by the bug reporter Attaching the screenshot.

Closing.
I installed the xine-phonon-backend and the sound is reestablished.Thanks to Christoph Gibondeaux and his research.
