The Kaffeine version you're using is too old. It still uses libxine backend to play videos. We moved to libVLC sometime ago (version 1.3.x), and we just released upstream a version 2.0.1, with is based on KDE5. So, lots of change too. Could you please test the upstream version and see if it works? The README file contains instructions about how to compile it. You can find it at our git repository:

https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kaffeine.git

As this BZ is on an old version that we're not maintaining anymore, I'm closing the bug. If you find similar issues with version 2.0.1, please re-open.
