I'm currently in process of emailing with mpt about how we should handle
this for media-hub and pulseaudio.  I just sent this out yesterday, so I
don't know his thoughts on this quite yet.

Bug description:
  The Qt 5.5 packages at https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-
  service/+archive/ubuntu/landing-012 now include the upstream versions
  of QML Playlist and Audio Role patches that went in to Qt 5.6.

  There are some differences in the Audio Role patch compared to the
  version on vivid-overlay PPA that requires changes.

  Qt 5.5 targets landing soon after xenial opens.

  For reference,
  Old API: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-kde/qt/qtmultimedia.git/diff/debian/patches/adding_media_role_property.patch?h=ubuntu&id=d5149eefcd093d96be3191d5f8a7f622f788e1f4
  New, upstreamed API: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-kde/qt/qtmultimedia.git/tree/debian/patches/Add-audio-role-API-to-QMediaPlayer.patch?h=ubuntu

  More information about Qt 5.5 at
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/QtTesting

  The plan (2015-11-02):

  Patch some components to work with both old API & Qt 5.4 + new API &
  Qt 5.5 - qtubuntu-camera, qtubuntu-media to detect at compile time and
  Unity 8 at runtime.

  Pulseaudio and media-hub would land only to xenial, switching to the
  new API as part of the Qt 5.5 silo.

  Clock and dropping-letters drop the audio role usage as it's not
  supposed to be used in those.
