Which phonon-backend do you use?
(In reply to comment #5) > Which phonon-backend do you use? phonon-vlc, sorry. It's the default backend set in the ebuild.
I assume, you use latest stable versions (phonon-4.5.0, phonon-vlc-0.3.2), vlc-1.1.9. Does rebuilding phonon-vlc help? Could you try phonon-vlc-0.4.0?

How about ~media-libs/phonon-4.5.1, media-libs/phonon-vlc-0.4.1 and media-video/vlc-1.1.12?
