I'm going to start a new checkout of the latest snapshot with:
rsync -avz rsync://rsync.trolltech.com/qt-mac-4.4 qt

After that I'll configure qt with the parameters you specified. This way I'm 
getting the a configuration that should work.

And for Qt Jambi I downloaded again the Qt Jambi 4.4 Preview.

Hopefully this will work, and indeed solve my Phonon problems, because the whole 
process takes more then 2 hours :-).
