I don't have pulse audio. But what fixed the problem partially for me, was your advice of reordering the sound devices in the phonon settings: I had to move the first working device up the the Music Category (with "Prefer") so it is the very first device. As long as there is another first device which is not working and shaded gray (it says "This device is currently not available."), and therefore the working device is the second one in the list, there is no sound. I think there is a bug, because phonon should use the first *available* device in the list (as it obviously did in version 0.5). While in version 0.6 it seems to use the first device regardless if it is available or not. Right now this behavior breaks amarok when I use the same config files on different computers (via NFS or synced). Cheers, Simon
