In the Renaming page for Audio Devices (System Settings KCM), the inline info message contains a slight grammatical error in the second sentence:
The second part ("…und müssen möglicherweise neu gestartet werden.") requires a demonstrative pronoun like for example ("…und diese müssen möglicherweise neu gestartet werden.").

Alternatively the message could be reworded entirely to e.g. ("Durch das Speichern der Änderungen werden die Audio-Dienste neu gestartet, was zu Unterbrechungen bei der Audiowiedergabe führen kann. Anwendungen, die Audio abspielen, müssen möglicherweise neu gestartet werden.") , which might sound better. It would however no longer follow the original English format by reordering the sentence structure.

Thanks for your report!
The error has been confirmed. Would you be happy with this?

Yeah, that sounds fine.

I posted an updated translation for review. The error will be fixed in an upcoming release: https://phabricator.kde.org/D30390
