Amarok 2.2 Equalizer

When Amarok 2 (of which I'm not yet completely fond, although it is improving) just migrated to Testing today, I figured I'd go all the way and updated to 2.1.80 (2.2 Beta 1) from Experimental. I had a moment of hope when I noticed an equalizer section in the settings menu...until I noticed that it was grayed out with a message that "Equalizer not supported by Phonon". Does this mean that Phonon still doesn't support equalizers, but the Amarok team is preparing their interface for when it does? Or is there some package that I can install/configuration option that I can set to enable the equalizer?
Thanks.

AFAIK, you need Phonon from trunk. And you will probably need to rebuild
amarok 2.2b1 against that Phonon...

1) Neon has never been available for Debian and never will (under that name at
least).

2) It is rather easy to build Phonon and install it to /usr/local.

You will be able to use Amarok 2.2 equalizer when phonon-backends 4.3.1-5
reaches unstable (in a couple of days or sooner).
