No sound, but Phonon plays test sounds

[stefano franchi]

After the last update to my Arch system, Amarok has stopped producing any sound.

More precisely:

If I click on a song, Amarok "plays" it: it updates the current song
widget, the progress bar advances, etc.. However, no sound is
produced.

I checked the playback settings, Phonon settings, and everything is
fine. Phonon's devices play  the test sound correctly

Other applications play sounds correctly as well.

Where could the problem be?

System details:

Arch 64 system, Kde 4.7.3, Amarok 2.4.3

Phonon with gstreamer backend

I have a motherboard with integrated audio and a sound card which I
prefer to use. To this effect, the integrated audio has been disable
in the Bios.

Cheers,

Stefano
