Clicking play after launch (with shuffle mode) stops after the first song

[fredrik lundin]

Sometimes after launch no song is selected and the back/play/forward buttons are disabled.
But other times the top track is selected and the buttons are active, clicking the play button while in the music library, with shuffle mode active, only one song plays and after that playback is stopped. It works if you play any other song but the one a the top (the one selected as default).

I experience this too so confirming

Also from duplicate report:

"I have to select a song for shuffle to work. Also on reboot, it won't go to the next song unless I select another song."

Confirming bug
I also have to do this:
"I have to select a song for shuffle to work. Also on reboot, it won't go to the next song unless I select another song."
Ps.
I put the music I want to listen to in a sub folder to the 'Music' folder ( the folder is called jukebox ) and try to set this folder as default in Noise ( Music ) but Noise changes the folder back to the default 'Music' folder every time I try.
Dunno if this is related. Maybe it needs a separate bug report ?

I'm unable to reproduce this lately. Can anyone else?

I still get some versions of this, it's almost like shuffle mode forgets what list it's shuffling and remembers only what song it was playing at the time noise(music) was closed.
