Description Sudhir Khanger 2015-04-22 15:20:09 UTC

Currently, you can play n number of players at the same time. You also have to go back and pause a player if you want to play audio in another player.

More info about this can be found in this thread https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=125673&sid=ba71da6850eeb625f8345f573a5a3b2e&p=333427#p333427

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Play audio in Amarok
2. Play audio in Juk
3.

Actual Results:  
Audio is played in both players

Expected Results:  
Ideally pause the player which is already playing when a new player is started.

This backend for Phonon is no longer maintained or supported, and has not been for quite some time. Please use the VLC backend instead--which is the recommended and maintained replacement--and see if you can reproduce the issue there. If you can, please open a new bug report at https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=phonon-backend-vlc.

Thanks a lot!
