Bug Description

I started rhythmbox, searched album, started to play.... sound started, but GUI freezed, I closed it (to tray) and revoke it - all I can see is white window with decoration top. I can resize it, I can play next/previous song (using tray Ubuntu sound manager), everything looks OK, except the window is filled with solid, white color.

Update: the window is responsible too - I can blindly click and e.g. play next song etc., but still the window is filled by white color.

Howto recreate it: start rhythmbox -> play song -> pause it -> press play => GUI freezes, after closing window and opening, the window is filled with white color. But IT IS responsible.

Interestingly I was able to fix the problem by 'chmod 777 ~/.cache/dconf/user' (rhythmbox reported this file as unaccessible), but I'am not sure how it will behave after restart.
