To solve my problem I did download xine-lib, xine-ui and amarok-xine as a rpm (could find it as a source package) and installed.  gstreamer would not ever work properly on setting the audio level.  So, I downloaded amarok 1.4 (for kde 3.5.9) and compiled and installed it.  Now Amarok will work with xine.  Amarok is hard to loose - so group please keep it up.

Erm, did you try installing phonon-backend-xine?

I would have more sympathy if you weren't responding to a thread where
people are talking about using phonon-xine!
