Binary package hint: amarok

Sometimes, trying to play audio files in Amarok fail and an error message displayed:
"The audio playback device HDA Intel (ALC888 Analog) does not work. Failing back to HDA Intel (ALC888 Digital)."

Sometimes it displays an error message "... Failing back to ."

I get the same problems,

I installed Ubuntu 9.10, and went apt-get install kubuntu-desktop,
My sound plays fine for a while and then just stops working, until i either restart or if i reinstall libxine1-ffmpeg..
This is realllllly frustrating..

Actually this should be working in 10.10+ as all apps use pulseaudio now.
