Tried it.  Sounds works in the Multimedia panel and Amarok (at the same time)  
Dragon player hangs when opening any video and doesn't play any sounds.  
Kaffeine plays video, but so sounds -- so same behavior as the Xine backend.

So, I get the best results out of the Xine backend, but it still doesn't work 
in Kaffeine.  So, is there another Phonon-based player that supports 
playlists; fiddling with the video player between each track in annoying.

I guess I'll file some bugs (Debian + KDE) and start trying package upgrades
