SUMMARY
I use Debian 13 with Gnome. Installed Crow Translate from the Debian repo. Speaking doesn't work until I additionally installed ```sudo apt install libqt5multimedia5-plugins```. I believe it should be a package dependence.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Debian 13 with Gnome.
2. sudo apt install crow-translate
3. Open Crow Translate, enter any text, press "Speak".

OBSERVED RESULT
No sound output.
Console output:
```
$ crow 
QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread
defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service found for - "org.qt-project.qt.mediaplayer"
defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service found for - "org.qt-project.qt.mediaplayer"
```

EXPECTED RESULT
I hear the voice.

Hi - Debian packagers compose the requirements for each package in the distribution's repositories, so they would need to be the ones adjusting something like this. The processes for reporting Debian bugs are described on their site here: https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting

Thanks!

Thank you!

Could you please advise if there is any complete list of components required for Crow Translate so that I can send it to Debian packagers? Because maybe this is not the only thing that is missing.

The general dependencies are described on the project's KDE Invent (GitLab) page: https://invent.kde.org/office/crow-translate#dependencies
