           Summary: No device listed in KCM Phonon, when Pulseaudio is
                    disabled
           Product: Phonon
           Version: 4.8.3
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: sit...@kde.org

With Pulseaudio enabled, my audio devices are well listed in KCM Phonon.

But as soon as I disable it, no device appear in KCM. So I can't select a
device for my sound, and as a result, I do not have sound anymore.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Disabling Pulseaudio (autospawn=off) or uninstall it
2. Restarting the computer
3. Opening KCM / Multimedia... -> No alsa device is listed

Actual Results:  
When I disable Pulseaudio, my audio devices does not appear in KCM, I can't
have sound working!

Expected Results:  
When I disable Pulseaudio, KCM should list alsa devices, I should be able to
select one, and my apps should be able to play sound !

I'm using the gstreamer engine, gstreamer-alsa package is installed.

It has never work since Kubuntu 15.10 and 16.04 (now). I'm not sure for 15.04,
but I'm absolutely sure it has worked in the past. The Multimedia KCM was able
to list devices with or without Pulseaudio !

This bug now begins to have a long life... it should be stopped, as I'm using
my computer for HIFI purpose (Pulseaudio is incompatible with HIFI), so I need
to use my devices directly with ALSA.
