Bug Description

Every time a new song comes on, the rhythmbox notification pops up 3-4 times . Sometimes with album art, sometimes without album art, and sometimes with the wrong album art (that might be a separate bug).

Each one of the notifications stays on for the normal time (10s?). When skipping songs, the notifications aren't cleared, so when I skip several songs in a row, I get to watch a backlog of notifications pop up and disappear for several minutes.

I'm pretty sure the wrong album art part is a separate bug. I've experienced incorrect album art without experiencing multiple notifications.
