xine-lib-1.0-1 seems not to have support for the arts-audiodriver. This leads to a problem with the kaffeine-frontend under KDE with arts-soundserver enabled. The xine-engine used by kaffeine isn't able to initialise the arts-audiodriver. You have to suspend arts manually by "artsshell suspend".

My suggestion: Compile xine-lib with arts-support
So, in PKBUILD the current setting in line

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-w32-path=/usr/lib/win32 --enable-alsa --enable-faad

would become to

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-w32-path=/usr/lib/win32 --enable-alsa --enable-arts --enable-faad

Would this compile-option lead to a dependency to kdelibs, when installing xine-lib?
This task depends upon

If this doesn't turn xine-lib into requiring arts on runtime, it would be fine.

Hmm, another problem: then xine-lib, which is in current, would have dependencies on kdelibs and arts, which are both in extra... This would be very bad for basic ports for something like i586 that only contains packages for current and not for extra.

Ok. You are right. I see the problem. I'm going to ponder on another solution for being able to use xine-lib within kde or to enable kaffeine to work.

Yeah, we've been on this road before, there's no easy way to do it so I'll just let this go.
