That's unreleased software and not the phonon KCM. The bug at any rate is known and in QML Controls (unfortunately I don't have a bug url handy).

Sorry to report at the wrong place. I didn't find an other thing related to "sound and other stuff". That's great that it's a known bug.

What do you mean by "That's unreleased software" ?

Alpha software -> https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/plasma-devel/2015-April/041025.html

Thank you but the link you post is about the volume applet and if you look at the screen I posted (http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=380582screenshot5.png) I talked about the "output selection" in the sound settings.

So I don't know if we talk about the same thing.
Comment 5 Harald Sitter 2015-05-23 19:11:59 UTC
That is the same thing. The applet comes with a configuration module which is called Sound and has a funky description like Sound and other stuff.

The list is broken because the configuration module was created using a technology called QML which still has a number of problems for desktop applications (such as combobox lists being rendered at the wrong position which is what you are seeing).
The configuration module also shouldn't have a white background for example, which is an issue that will be resolved in the upcoming KDE Frameworks release.

Thank you very much for this clarification ;)
