While using Digikam from https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/digikam-5.9.0-01-x86-64.appimage, I was unable to get ALSA to play sound at all. I got results similar to those listed at http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/digiKam-users-Digikam-Cannot-access-file-share-alsa-alsa-conf-td4705967.html, namely: Cannot access file ././/share/alsa/alsa.conf No amount of ALSA tweaking would make it work. I was eventually able to work around this by running alsoft-conf on the host, removing ALSA from the "Backends in use", and adding PulseAudio to that list.
what's about this file using current 6.0.0 pre release AppImage bundle available here : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Gilles Caulier
Can you reproduce the dysfunction using the last digiKam 6.0.0-beta3 just released ? https://www.digikam.org/news/2018-12-30-6.0.0-beta3_release_announcement/
Good news, After 2 weeks of works, the Linux AppImage bundle 64 bits is now reconstructed from scratch with: - All OpenCV options for CUDA, OPenMP, and OPenCL disabled - A large upgrade of Qt5 from 5.9.7 to 5.11.3. - An upgrade to KF5 5.55. - An upgrade to Ffmpeg 3.3.9 - The fontconfig/freetype integration in the bundle to reduce system dependencies Files can be downloaded here : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Please test and report. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier
jgoerzen, After 3 weeks of work, i finally completed the compilation of AppImage using Qt 5.11.3 + QWebkit 5.212. New 6.1.0 pre-release AppImage bundle can be found here (64 bits only for the moment) : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Please check if the problem remain. Gilles Caulier

Unfortunately still no sound. The "capi" entry is also missing, but if it is related at all... Maik
New bundle AppImage completely rewritten under Mageia6 (instead Cento6) is available at usual place for testing : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ This fix this sound problem with video. Gilles Caulier
