           Summary: Phonon should store device info in a computer-specific
                    location
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcm_phonon
        AssignedTo: kretz@kde.org
        ReportedBy: rivolaks@hot.ee


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Currently Phonon keep the list of audio devices in
~/.kde/share/config/phonondevicesrc file.
This is problematic when a shared user profile (= home directory) is used on
multiple computers with different soundcards. In that case, when logging into a
different computer, Phonon warns about missing/changed soundcards on startup.

A solution would be to either store this configuration in a computer-specific
location (maybe somewhere under ~/.kde/cache-* ?) or, alternatively, to add a
computer specific token (maybe hostname) to the group names in the config file.
