Make sure that Qt-4.8.1 is compiled without the bundled Phonon library. This package provides a better implementation.

Install Phonon by running the following commands:

mkdir build &&
cd build &&
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$QTDIR \
      -DPHONON_INSTALL_QT_EXTENSIONS_INTO_SYSTEM_QT=TRUE \
      .. &&
make

Now, as the root user:

make install

-DPHONON_INSTALL_QT_EXTENSIONS_INTO_SYSTEM_QT=TRUE: This option ensures that the plugins and mkspecs files get installed in the correct location.
