--- Comment #1 from Dawit Alemayehu <adawit at kde.org> ---
QtWebKit no longer uses phonon as it multimedia backend. Instead it directly
relies on webkit's builtin support for gstreamer. It has been that way for a
while [1]. 

The only time I encounter the issue you describe here, no sound when playing
HTML5 video, is when I switch KDE's Phonon backend to something other than
Gstreamer, e.g. VLC. Otherwise,  I see and hear vide very well from HTML 5
videos such as this one on HTML 5 in QtWebKit [2]. So the question is what is
your KDE Multimedia backend set to ?
