            Bug ID: 399316
           Summary: Elisa Music Player missing packages to make it
                    actually play audio.
           Product: neon
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Packages User Edition
          Assignee: neon-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: griffinval...@gmail.com
                CC: j...@jriddell.org, neon-b...@kde.org, sit...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Not sure if this is a Neon problem or a problem in Elisa, but it is a packages
problem, so I figured I'd try Neon first.

If I install Elisa from Discovery on KDE Neon user edition based on 18.04,
Elisa doesn't give any playback. This might be because gstreamer is not being
installed.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Elisa from discovery.
2. Open Elisa, select any track.
3. Press play.

OBSERVED RESULT
No music will be heard, and the audio plasma widget doesn't say any program is
playing audio, despite Elise visibly going over the track.

EXPECTED RESULT
Music being played.


SOFTWARE VERSIONS
(available in About System)
KDE Neon 5.13
KDE Plasma Version: 5.13.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.50.0
Qt Version: 5.11.1
Kernel: 4.15.0-36-generic

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Trying to find any solution led me to try and install Brasero, after which
Elisa started to work. Installing brasero installs gstreamer, which I vaguely
recall is necessary for using Qt Multimedia on Ubuntu based systems, so I
suspect this is the missing link for getting Elisa to play back on KDE Neon.
