Instead, one must ship a named pipe file in the click package, and use it as an audio sample source. However, when using a named pipe as a sample, the AudioEngine seems to read the data, but does not actually play it through the speakers. The following QML code can be added to an application for testing: Label { id: label objectName: "label" text: i18n.tr("Play Audio Pipe") AudioEngine { id: audioengine AudioSample { name: "audiopipe" source: "audiopipe" } Sound { name: "audiopipe" PlayVariation { sample: "audiopipe" } } } MouseArea { anchors.fill: parent onPressed: { audioengine.sounds["audiopipe"].play(); } } } Running the following commands and then clicking the "Play Audio Pipe" button should result in the sound being heard through the speakers, but apparently only results in the data being read and unblocking the input which is writing to the pipe. mkfifo audiopipe cat foo.wav > audiopipe The file 'foo.wav' can be any valid wav audio file.
