i expect a normal working vlc, which show up if i start and dont crash on start of any files.

the main window of vlc dont show up, thats why i have to start in console to get a console  output. after starting vlc my pulseaudio also crash completly.

USE=-qt4 - you didn't build a GUI at all, it seems.

does qt5 not work on VLC media player 2.1.5 . if the USE qt5 is not for this version so i will use qt4.in any cases this is solved.
