Just to add to this, Kai, if I may:
install VideoDownloader, which is an Extention for Firefox, and when on
YouTube, for example, select the video to play then as it starts to
download to your system PAUSE the transfer/play; run VideoDownloader and
it will download the video file to your selected directory as a file
called "get_video"; RENAME this file to whatever you want BUT make sure
that you give it an extension of ".flv". AMAROK will quite happily play
this *.flv file as AUDIO only - no video (but who really cares?). (There
is a Windows conversion app. for VideoDownloader to convert the *.flv
files to have them replay as videos - Linux misses out :-( .)
Just play those .flv files with MPlayer (video+sound)..

Hey! That is great! :-)
Many thanks for this information. The audio PLUS video now available
(but I have to say that in most cases one is better off without the video!).
Cheers.
