Description Bill Smithem 2017-06-06 16:40:38 UTC 
rsibreak won't play any sounds. Have tried .ogg, .mp3 and .wav

Info from About dialog:
Version 0.12
KDE Frameworks 5.18.0
Qt 5.5.1 (built against 5.5.1)
The xcb windowing system

First question, if you open the notifications settings, are the file paths actually being saved?

i.e. is this a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=375931 ?

The path is being stored correctly.
Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2017-06-08 20:20:58 UTC 
Do any other notification of any other KDE Frameworks program work? Because i'm thinking your system is somehow broken.

Can you attach the output of
$ dpkg -l | grep phonon4qt5
?
Comment 5 Bill Smithem 2017-06-09 13:22:07 UTC 
I don't know that I'm running any other KDE frameworks packages that use notifications. Audio works fine with Amarok, so I assumed everything is there to play audio properly. Sounds won't even play in configuration screen when I hit the play button.

dpkg -l | grep phonon4qt5 returns:

ii  libphonon4qt5-4:amd64                                       4:4.8.3-0ubuntu3                                 amd64        multimedia framework from KDE using Qt 5 - core library
Comment 6 Albert Astals Cid 2017-06-12 22:22:04 UTC 
Does installing phonon4qt5-backend-gstreamer help?
Comment 7 Bill Smithem 2017-06-13 15:23:48 UTC 
Yes!!! That's got it. Thank you very much.
