I'm experiencing this issue too. I do not understand why closing an app does not actually close it. That's quite frustrating to me. If I want to minimize and leave it running in the background, I'd do that instead. Maybe this is my Windows background, but X means close to me.
When I close Rhythmbox while it's playing then Rhythmbox is removed from the dock. That leaves me with no obvious way to turn the music off and I have to re-open Rhythmbox in order to press stop. At a minimum, can there be a setting in rhythmbox to control which type of close we want? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754125 Title: Rhythmbox stays running in the background after quit Status in rhythmbox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: If you do ps -alx you will see rhythmbox process still running.
