hm, I have no problem with that, icons are just fine there? did a clean 
install without config dirs in the home dir.

I have my sound running, meanwhile, also. Seems to be some order you need to 
stick to during install.
Several times I deinstalled everything, cleaned homedir and /usr/local/kde4 
and rebuilt everything from fresh area51. I think last order was xine, then 
qt4 with no phonon, then multimedia/phonon and kde things afterwards 
beginning with kdelibs4.
Are you using another backend/player than xine? Once working, I had no issue 
with juk?
