Public bug reported:
Rhythmbox 2.98-0ubuntu5 0 running on Ubuntu 13.04
This is a long-standing problem that occasionally gets fixed (see Bug
#60326 and Bug #404218 ) but seems to re-occur with subsequent
releases.
All my mp3s are stored on a desktop PC on my home network in a directory
shared via Samba. I can set this as the music library for Rhythmbox on
my laptop and Rhythmbox scans it OK over the network. However, when it
comes to playback on my laptop, I hear the first half a second of a
track then silence. The track timer continues to move, as if playing
back but there's no sound.
If I navigate to the shared folder in Nautilus and double-click an mp3,
it plays back fine in Totem.
