Dolphin not able to read audio cd

After the upgrade of the KDE-Applications to 15.8, Dolphin seems not to be able to read audio cd's. Tough the cd icon appears in the side panel, a click on it effects nothing at all, no reaction. The main window remains empty. 
Is there any trick to make dolphin able to read and rit audio cd's ?

regards

Re: Dolphin not able to read audio cd

The KDE is using kioslave to open/rip audiocds. Arch: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … diocd-kio/ . The Dolphin has been ported to the KDE Frameworks 5.

Looking: KF5 Porting Status: http://developer.kde.org/~cfeck/portingstatus.html
It says: 'kio-audiocd (red) No KF5 port found in this branch.'

Looking: https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/k … itory/show?
There is no frameworks branch.

The Dolphin (KF5) will need a ported audiocd-kio. Workaround is to use the Konqueror. It has not ported to the KF5 so it can use the existing audiocd-kio.
