This bug seems to affect me as well after playing an mp3, if the next file is ogg it just stops at 0:00. If I skip, or fast forward or anything, it will work. Test on a bunch of files transcodec from different disc and in different times.
But there is an important twist - it happens in quodlibet player, which uses gstreamer, when playing local files. Which should mean that the problem is not with daap served files, but mainly in the mp3 to ogg playback. Additionally it happens in the same manner if I use an "wma" file instead of an mp3. Maybe it has to do something with the "ugly" codecs?

Ie, if I connect to a mt-daapd server running lucid with rhythmbox on precise, I can play individual files fine. I have selected to have songs play in random order, and rhythmbox will continue to the next song fine. Occassionally audio will stop in one of the songs and then minutes later it will start up again (with no user interaction) in another song. When it does stop, I can click to fast forward to another song and it works ok. This does not seem to happen with local files (I played them for hours with no interruption), only daap served files. I have tried to correlate this with a problem with networking in precise, but do not see any messages problems in /var/log/syslog that would indicate a problem. Rhythmbox can play a mixture of ogg and mp3 files fine (ie, it is not a codecs issue). There is nothing in .xsession-errors when this occurs. I tried to strace rhythmbox at the time of the problem, but couldn't figure out what was happening. This worked fine in 11.10 and earlier.
