Only audio in HTML5 [with QtWebkit?]

I've installed all gstreamer (both 0.10 and the new one) and vlc (an I'm using phonon-vlc) plugins just to be sure but... when I run HTML5 video on some site, I can hear sound (the video is playing) but I can't see actual video frame. I've tried Konqueror, Rekonq and QupZilla browsers - all behaves the same so it's probably something with qtwebkit (KHTML of Konqueror is unusable on YouTube and is not working too but the reasons can be different). The thing is I've added

IgnorePKG = gtk gtk2 gtk3 gconf

to my /dec/pacman.conf to keep my system clean (GTK applications behave poorly on my system so I wanted to complitelly get rid of the toolkit) but I want to use YouTube anyway...

I've just tested that Opera is playing fine... but the problem is there anyway.
