Bug Description

So... Rhythmbox appeared with this error some time ago.
It happens anytime at any random period since its' opened. For example, when I played a song with Rhythmbox one day, it kept itself alive for some time. Some songs later, it just closes and I have to reopen again. In other day, when I tried to play a song, in the first seconds of the song, it closed (both the playback and the window).

I noticed that the app may close if the window is open and may close even if its' minimized or playing in the background (playback).

I don't remember when I got this bug for the first time, but I remember that Rhythmbox has received at least one upgrade in my Ubuntu. But this upgrade did not solved my problem.

It's really annoying; I'm enjoying a song then Rhythmbox closes without notice and just... crashes, leading my fun to an end.

Ubuntu has appeared with some bugs recently. I've never experienced bugs in Ubuntu before, but now, they're just popping up from the nothing! (still the best OS). First, I had a bug with the keyboard (which was changing the layout randomly), then I had a problem with the network-manager, which could not receive or send any data to or from the web (happened randomly too).
But it seems that those two bugs were fixed, because I upgraded the packages in my Ubuntu, and I saw the keyboard an the connections packages listed in the upgrades (phew!).

But Ubuntu still has this annoying bug in Rhythmbox, which as I said, interrupts my fun while I'm enjoying music.

Well, I hope that's all Canonical needs from a bug report. If not, you can ask anything needed and I'll try to answer/reply ASAP.

Thanks in advance!
