Sound doesn't work at all with this installation on this computer. I used 
netinst jessie (stable) to install KDE. This is just to inform you as 
unlucklily I have to change to Mint although I don't like their intransparent 
non-free policy. Maybe I'll try again in half a year.


I would expect this to be an issue of pulseaudio or alsa, and not particularly 
of phonon, unless phonon it's using the null backend (which would cause the no 
sound for kde apps), it forwards the sound requests to it's backends (vlc for 
the looks of the reported installed packages).


Could you please test playing some sound with vlc directly? if that doesn't 
work, then the problem is either in vlc or in a lower level.


Happy hacking,

Hey dear people,

I just noticed, that in Mint 17.3 Sound works on the Live-iso although
they use the older 3.19 Kernel. Maybe that helps.

Keep up your good works!
Thanks - Maria

Dear Maintainer,

Sound doesn't work at all with this installation on this computer. I used
netinst jessie (stable) to install KDE. This is just to inform you as
unlucklily I have to change to Mint although I don't like their intransparent
non-free policy. Maybe I'll try again in half a year.

Keep on with your great work!
Thanks Maria
