Probably a really simple Phonon question with gstreamer backend and kmix volume control

This is a screenshot of my program I've written and KMIX:

As you can see, it's a pretty nice pyqt program and everything works very well
in opensuse. However, when I switch into kubuntu I run into a problem that you
can see: in kmix, it shows TWO audio outputs for my program. The slider works
the second one....which means it has very little control over the actual
volume. If I keep playing around with kmix, I can usually get it to switch focus to the correct volume control.

The actual code snippet is:

@pyqtSlot()
def item_clicked(self):
    row = self.listWidget.currentRow()
    song = musiclist[row]
    self.mediaObject = Phonon.createPlayer(Phonon.MusicCategory)
    self.audioOutput = Phonon.AudioOutput(Phonon.MusicCategory, self)
    Phonon.createPath(self.mediaObject, self.audioOutput)
    self.volumeSlider.setAudioOutput(self.audioOutput)
    self.mediaObject.setCurrentSource(Phonon.MediaSource(song))
    self.mediaObject.play()

I don't know why you would, but If you want the whole program, you can find the
source you can install with python setup.py install here....along with many
