Please check if your system locale is set to UTF instead of ISO. Also, which Phonon backend do you use?

OK, I changed the bug's title to make it more appropriate. I don't see phonon-gstreamer-4.4.5 here: ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/phonon/phonon-backend-gstreamer/ . When will it be released? Is there anything I can do to help? Regards, -- Shlomi Fish
reassigning to the new bugzilla product for better bug tracing of the various backends. Sorry for the noise.
