            Bug ID: 367753
           Summary: notifications do not play sound
           Product: konversation
           Version: 1.6
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: notifications
          Assignee: konversation-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: rogpeppe at gmail.com

Background: I upgraded to a new laptop and copied all my Konversation
configuration files from my old laptop (running Konversation 1.5-master, ubuntu
14.04) to the new laptop (running Konversation 1.6, ubuntu 16.04).

I changed my existing notifications to refer to sound files that exist in the
new machine (under /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/notifications), but Konversation
won't play them when clicking the triangular play icon or when the notification
gets triggered.

When it tries to play the sound, it prints the following text to the console:

    WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin
could not be loaded
    WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin
could not be loaded
    WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin
could not be loaded
    WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin
could not be loaded
    WARNING: Phonon::createPath: Cannot connect  Phonon::MediaObject ( no
objectName ) to  Phonon::AudioOutput ( no objectName ).
    WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin
could not be loaded
    WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin
could not be loaded

Other apps play the sound files just fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. select a sound file in the notifications settings
2.click play


Actual Results:  
no sound

Expected Results:  
sound plays
