Comment 23 for bug 162470

The problem is still there, unsolved, with Xine 4.4.4... though compared to the posts I see the music stops when seeking but goes back to initial point after ~2s.

I installed gstreamer phonon backend. After changing the engine in phonon properties (accessible for gnome users in Amarok preferences -> Playback section), and restarting Amarok, it works flawlessly.

Tried also the vlc backend, was quite surprised to see vlc usable as a backend ! It works but segfaults when closing Amarok, small burden but still gstreamer seems better on this point.
The only regression I find about gstreamer is that the output configuration cannot be configured inside phonon properties (it works with vlc). Strange as i thought pulseaudio was taking care of that, not the sound engine.
