Amarok 2.2.1 proxy issue

[Bjorn Meyer <bjorn.m.meyer@gmail.com>]

Hi all.

I am wondering if anyone else has run into this issue, and found a resolution.

I am finding that Amarok 2.2.1 will not detect the global KDE settings for the 
proxy server. So I am unable to stream music and it will not look up the 
lyrics.
However, if I run "export http_proxy=http://192.168.1.1:8080"; in a console 
session, then run /usr/bin/amarok, I am able to stream again. Lyrics, still 
don't show up, but I'm not too worried about that.

Anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?
