Bug reporting is usually done via bugs.kde.org There you can search
for other reports of similar issues.

I just searched for it and found nothing resembling the problem:
https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=specific&order=relevance%20desc&bug_status=__open__&product=amarok&content=volume%20pause&list_id=181295


I'll try myself during this workday to see if I can reproduce, though
I haven't noticed any problem until now. I'm using default unity on
ubuntu right now. I think the underlying system is the same as gnome
3.
This is likely a bug in pulseaudio or something that is controlling
it, but we should investigate from the Amarok end and forward the bug
when required.
