I just tested it and the issue has been resolved for me! I'm not sure what fixed this. I started up the Hardy release LiveCD (in virtualbox- ose) and verified that the situation still exists there. I am currently using rhythmbox 0.11.5-0ubuntu8.
To the other reporters of this bug: Since I have been the only one to say this issue is related to the keyboard media keys, it would be great if you could either confirm the keys are the issue, or that the problem has now been solved. Easy steps to trigger this issue (on a Hardy LiveCD or unpatched install): 1) Open Rhythmbox 2) Edit -> Preferences -> enable Play Count (not a necessary step, but will easily show the issue) 3) Add at least one song 4) Start playing a song (eg. double click it) 5) Press the 'stop' media key on your keyboard partway through the song (eg. 10 seconds into a 4 minute song) 6) Press the 'play/pause' media key on your keyboard to start playing this song again from the beginning What should happen: The song completes playing, the play count is incremented, and the next song starts playing (according to repeat/shuffle/whatever) What actually happens: The song does gets to the end, but does not "complete" playing (play count does not increment), and never moves on to the next song. Further detail: Play/pause will press/depress the UI button, but with no actual effect (the song still sits there at the end). Stop will take the song back to the beginning, but playing it again will get it stuck at the end. The only way to resume normal behaviour is with previous, next, or by manually choosing a song. I tried updating rhythmbox in the VM, but it locked up during the install. If others are still experiencing the issue, I can look into it further. If not, fix released! -- rhtmbox doesn't play the next song after first song finished https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130213 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
