I've verified that it works when downgrading libphonon4 and phonon to
4:4.6.0.0-3 + phonon-backend-gstreamer to 4:4.6.3-1. The phonon-backend-vlc
was removed for this test because the vlc dependencies were a nightmare to
downgrade.
Then I've upgraded libphonon4 again to 4:4.7.0.0-2 and it stopped working. I
can repeat these step again and again and come always to the same result. I
cannot upgrade phonon or phonon-backend-gstreamer without libphonon4. Thus it
is not possible for me whether this also happens with only these components
upgraded.
