--- Comment #1 from Georg Grabler <ggrab...@gmail.com> ---
This is an issue with the phonon-gstreamer backend actually.

setting on debugging
export PHONON_DEBUG=5
export PHONON_BACKEND_DEBUG=5
export PHONON_SUBSYSTEM_DEBUG=2
export PHONON_PULSEAUDIO_DEBUG=5
export PHONON_VLC_DEBUG=5
export PHONON_GST_DEBUG=5

and starting the KCM you'll very likely see something like this:
PHONON-GST [WARNING] "Warning: You do not seem to have the package
gstreamer1.0-plugins-good installed.\n          Some video features have been
disabled."
PHONON-GST [WARNING] "Warning: You do not seem to have the package
gstreamer1.0-plugins-good installed.\n          Some video features have been
disabled."
PHONON-GST Using GStreamer 1.6.3
PHONON-GST [WARNING] PulseAudio support failed. Falling back to 'auto'
"PulseSupport(2): Enabled Breakdown: mEnabled: No, s_pulseActive Yes"
PHONON-GST AudioOutput using alsa audio sink

The interesting part is the warning about gstreamer-plugins-good. I've
installed them, after that the KCM properly recognized my devices. This
certainly shouldn't happen, but I didn't dabble in the code yet to see why this
is happening (this warning should not result in misfunction of the device
listing). Most distributions ship gstreamer-plugins-good as depend for
phonon-qt5-gstreamer, ArchLinux does not (and in my opinion they shouldn't be
necessary to detect the devices properly).

Though, phonon still plays no sound (invalid media source, still working on
getting better info on why that is happening), but you'll see your devices and
you'll be able to priorize them (and they'll work with all other sound
applications but phonon - funny, isn't it?).
