Hi, I also could not play mp3 files after installing F24. (i had installed the good, the bad and the ugliest packages from rpmfusion, like i alwats done from pevious Fedora versions). I found somewhere that i had to workaround it: Install 'phonon-qt5-backend-vlc' and setup Amarok to use it. Preferences -> Configure Amarok -> Reproduction -> Phonon Setup -> Engine -> Selec "VLC" and click on "PREFER". Then Amarok was able to play mp3 normally. I hope it helps. The default engine did not work for me at all. Cheers.
