Dolphin autoplay - partial implementation

As I've seen this been requested several times around the internet and I saw it
on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Nautilus & on recent Caja file manager versions (MATE
desktop), I'd really like to implement the feature as an alternative option in
Dolphin. The feature is handy especially for previewing small audio files.

I've done partial implementation but it's not perfect. There are several major
(but quite trivial) issues still to be resolved:

1) Stop playback once the Dolphin window (where the audio preview is being
played) is inactivated and window focus lost

2) Get system default media player (Amarok, VLC, etc.) and stop preview
playback if the specific track (or any track) is opened in the player

3) If the default media player is currently playing any music track (or video
file), do not play a preview since it could distract user

4) Apply autoplay only for audio mimetypes (as it does in Nautilus/Caja)

My partial implementation as an attachment, missing features described above.
Please, feel free to edit the patch file if needed.
