Public bug reported: In 17.04, when Rhythmbox was running, I was able to launch Rhyhmbox, play/pause, fast forward / reverse, etc., from the top bar menus, and the menus also showed the current playing song. I.e., there was essentially a mini-player in the top-bar menu.
It's gone in 17.10. When I launch rhythmbox and then close the rhythmbox window, music keeps playing like in 17.04, but there's no way for me to control it or to easily open the main rhythmbox window.
