            Bug ID: 364911
           Summary: Distortion and volume issues when using phonon-vlc
                    backend
           Product: Phonon
           Version: 4.9.0
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: sit...@kde.org
          Reporter: did...@users.sourceforge.net
                CC: myr...@kde.org, romain.per...@gmail.com

Gentoo user, I am using kde-frameworks-5.23.0, plasma-5.6.5, phonon-4.9.0 and
phonon-vlc-0.9.0.

On a quite default setup, if I do something like "unlock widgets" which will
cause a pop up and a notification sound to occur the following happens:

1. sometimes the volume is noticeably louder than when I click the play button
in the kcm notifications dialog.  This also causes clipping/distortion
2. sometimes the sound is a very garbled loud noise, which doesn't resemble the
original sound (in this case Oxygen-Sys-Special.ogg) at all
3. If I click around in the kcm notifications dialog, most sounds seem to have
an audible pop at their beginning.


if I switch to phonon-gstreamer-4.9.0 backend, the issue seems to go away.

Reproducible: Always
