Ditto here (exact same behavior). This has been happening for as long as I can remember since adding kde-testing and installing 4.2-rc1. Swapping phonon backends didn't help, so I just always ended up 'pkill amarok'-ing it, then restarting it.
Have you looked at /var/log/messages while this happens (when music is paused in Amarok)? For me, the problem is with pulseaudio-alsa. I've to kill amarok (not just close it, it continues in the background) and restart to get playback.
