In my case, on gconf, the key /desktop/gnome/applications/media/exec has value rhythmbox. So, when I click "Listen to music", it tries to open rhythmbox. But rhythmbox it is not installed on my netbook.

I don't know why, on PlacesHomeView.cpp (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity/trunk/view/head:/src/PlacesHomeView.cpp#L278) it opens firefox if no matching program is found.

I think that this does not make any sense. I would suggest that the program "software-center <program_not_found>" (in that case, "software-center rhythmbox") is launched. So, if the program is not found, the user can install it.

Anyway, as Omer said, if some installed player is set as default music player, the problem does not happen.

Waiting feedback to work on this bug.
