It seems the order Phonon tries with the sound devices is not very wise, on my
machine, it tries (in that order):
1) HDA Intel Analog
which would fail if Pulse is using it;
2) Intel HDMI
which doesn't even report a failure but is always silent
3) PulseAudio
The most sane choice. But due to 2, it's not gonna be attempted
I worked around the problem by installing systemsettings, and changed
the preferred device in "Multimedia" to PulseAudio.
Eh, how messy
