Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
Ubuntu 10.10 32bit standard live CD used to install system on a Dell
Studio Laptop 1555.
Rhythmbox Play/Pause button not working correctly, in both "mini" (from main
Gnome bar sound icon) and main Rhythmbox GUI window, and with laptop hot-key
Play/pause, worked correctly in Totem Movie Player (v2.32.0), both the button
in the Totem GUI and the laptop play/pause hot-key.
If you open Rhythmbox, and select a track. You can start the track
playing using one of the play buttons, main/mini/hotkey, but after that
pressing any one of the play/pause buttons does not pause the track. If
you quit from the Rhythmbox you can then repeat (ie start a track using
one of the play buttons).
Note that pressing the "pause" icon in the GUI causes the button to change to a
"Play" button, but the track continues playing. If the "Play" button is now
pressed nothing changes, ie it remains as a "Play" button.
If you quit from Rhythmbox, re-start Rhythmbox, this behaviour can be repeated.
The same is seen if you press the "mini" player "Pause" icon once a track is
playing.
Suspect (guess) that this issue started after installing the "unity" (netbook)
window manager? I cannot be sure as I have also installed the various updates
that have been available. The issue above is occuring with the standard Gnome
window manager. The same behaviour also occurs if I use the netbook window
manager.
To confirm that the play/pause buttons had worked previously booted up using
standard Gnome 10.10 32bit live CD. Rhythmbox play/pause and laptop hotkey
buttons worked corrected.
Other buttons (ie the previous and next track) work correctly both in
the main GUI, mini player, and using the laptop hotkeys.
