Just got KDE-4.4 running yesterday after some compile issues so I might not be much help. I find that if I open: "Multimedia" in SystemSettings that I no longer have PulseAudio listed as a choice for an Output Device. So, I checked and, yes, Phonon was built with PulseAudio support. So, although I have no problem playing sound through my hardware device (the only choice listed), I am very puzzled. The place to start is with SystemSettings.
