@Jonathan Ernst Thanks for following up on this. However, something is still wrong. I just deleted the ".is_audio_player" file from my Sansa Clip+. I ejected and replugged my Sansa, and now Banshee and Rhythmbox no longer detect it as a media player (i.e. an icon doesn't show up so that I can sync music to it). The player is in MSC mode. When I plug the player in, Nautilus recognizes it as a USB drive (actually 2 separate USB drives because my player also has an optional additional uSDHC card). But when I open Rhythmbox or Banshee, I can't access the drive.
I'm using Banshee 1.9.2 and Rhythmbox 0.13.1. $lsusb Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 003: ID 046d:c00e Logitech, Inc.

I wonder if something didn't get messed up with Banshee when I upgraded from 10.04? No need to answer this, but if you have any thoughts let me know. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505645 Title: Sansa Clip+ (CLIPP, Clip Plus) digital audio player not recognised properly -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
