No, he uses KMail-Trinity. I'd be very surprised if it dragged in anything
from KDE4. I have kmail-trinity.
lisi@Tux-II:~$ aptitude show phonon
Package: phonon
State: not installed
Multi-Arch: same
Version: 4:4.6.0.0-3
Priority: optional
Section: sound
Maintainer: Debian Qt/KDE Maintainers <debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org>
Architecture: amd64
If Gene has phonon it is a hangover from KDE4 and nothing to do with his
present kmail-trinity.

My point was, without pulseaudio what use is pavucontrol? Why install
pavucontrol when it is useless without pulseaudio?
