I forgot: This happens only when Juk goes on to the next track on it's own (because the song is over), when I press the nex-button while a song is playing, the next song is will be played without skipping. I take it that Phonon on Windows does not support having two AudioOutput objects simultaneously (JuK does this to support crossfading). This is why you don't see it when you click next track manually, as JuK does not crossfade in this case. AFAIK this is something Phonon is supposed to be able to do (up to the operating system limit at least). You may want to check Nokia's Qt development bugtracker (from http://qt.nokia.com/) to see if it is a known bug. I'll leave this open for now in case it turns out that JuK is using Phonon incorrectly (but I doubt it ;) Thanks for clarification, I think a file a bug report to Qt (I didn't find anything related on their bug tracker). Do I see correctly, that there is no possibility to disable crossfading in Juk in the meantime? Disabling crossfading is an option that always hovers right near the top of my priority list without ever quite managing to make it there. :( bug 165786 (add option to disable crossfading) is now fixed. I have nearly the exact same problem under Gentoo Linux (using KDE 4.3.2), except it's not always every second song that is skipped; it's more random thn that and not easily reproducable, and also a bit rarer. This used to happen a lot more often KDE 4.2.x, if that helps. Hi, I have the same problem on Kubuntu (9.04 with PPA packages of KDE 4.3.2) I applied the patch from bug 165786 and I still get the same result. The only difference is that I do not notice it as easily as I do not hear the beginning of the skipped track when crossfading is turned off. What I have noticed tho is that I get TagLib warnings in the console: ... TagLib: MPEG::Header::parse() -- Invalid sample rate. TagLib: MPEG::Properties::read() -- Page headers were invalid. ... I have the same setup on my home computer (except hardware), but there I have no problem. I see the same problem with KDE 4.3.2 (Juk 3.3) on openSuse 11.1. Every second song is skipped after 2 seconds or so. I see no setting to disable crossfading in Juk. Created attachment 37944 [details]
Patch to fix skipping tracks
This patch fixes it for me.
The problem is that slotFinished() is called from the non-playing Phonon::MediaObject and that results in the skipping.
SVN commit 1042531 by mpyne: Apply a modified patch by Kåre Särs to try and solve bug 204391 (JuK skips every second track on Windows). I guess the Qt Phonon backend on Windows doesn't emit the aboutToFinish signal, that's the only thing I can think of offhand that would cause this. Either way the patch doesn't hurt so in it goes. (This applies to KDE 4.4, will backport).

This patch from Kåre Särs should fix the issue of JuK skipping every other track on Windows (and possibly elsewhere, depending on how useful/lousy your Phonon backend is). If it doesn't fix the bug, just reopen.
