knotify and libcanberra Re: KDE Sound and Multimedia Plan

[Daniel Marcus]

Alex's idea actually sounds very appealing to me as an end user. It would be
nice if for example, a game could specify that it wants to use libcanberra
so that sounds most closely match events. As an added bonus, by still using
phonon, it can intelligently make sure that an input media is playable
through a certain service, especially if for example, a user has a sound
file that uses a particular codec that works with say, VLC but not
libcanberra.
