Public bug reported:

My Sony Ericsson phone, model Xperia X10, is not recognized in both
Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04 (upgraded from 11.10).

I looked at the /usr/share/media-player-info/sony-
ericsson_xperia-x10.mpi and it does not have the specific usb id for my
device which is:

Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0fce:612e Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB

(from lsusb).

I tried to manually add the above id to the mpi file changind the line

DeviceMatch=usb:0fce:312e;usb:0fce:d12e;usb:0fce:e12e;

to

DeviceMatch=usb:0fce:312e;usb:0fce:d12e;usb:0fce:e12e;usb:0fce:612e;

But it did not work, which puzzled me. Another thing that comes to my
mind is that some time ago Ubuntu used to ask me what to do with other
media in the phone (like photos). That dialog is not appearing anymore.
Maybe a more general system is broken?

A possible workaround to make banshee and rhythmbox reconize the phone
it is to use a .is_audio_player file.

Extra information:

1) Ubuntu version

Description:    Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Release:        12.04

2) pjssilva@trinity:~$ apt-cache policy media-player-info
media-player-info:
  Instalado: 16-1
  Candidato: 16-1
  Tabela de versão:
 *** 16-1 0
        500 http://mirror.globo.com/ubuntu/archive/ precise/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What I expected to happen: when plugging in my phone I would expect
it to be reconized as a media player by Banshee or Rhythmbox.

4) The phone is not recognized.
