Dolphin can be a very nice music player to some of us - one of the two things, which block that use case currently, is that the music stops, once i hover with the mouse over another file - i hope its an easy job, to add an option in the settings, which create a new qt and KDE based music player ;)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Dolphin and open the info sidebar if not open yet (F11)
2. Hover over a music file
3. Press play
4. Hover with the mouse over another file
5. Get angry about that :)

Actual Results:  
Music/Video stops to play

Expected Results:  
Music/Video succeed to play

I like to mention, that it is possible to still show all the previews of other files, so long as the playback itself succeed 

So let the preview of the current selected file appear in the sidebar, succeed with a current playback and let the music player interface reappear, once the cursor point to an empty space and the panels. 

Since this seems to be in the interest of the community - see the votes - can i do anything to get this into further discussion and then maybe on the road map?

Thanks a lot in advance
