Bug Description

Currently, cover art stored in ID3 tags in mp3 files are viewable in amarok. This is not the case, however, if any other .jpg images files are in the same directory.

Use case:
Directory: Music/A/
Files:
Abba - Abba.jpg
Abba - Abba - 01 - Mamma Mia.mp3
Ace Of Base - The Sign - 02 - All That She Wants.mp3

Even if the Ace of Base song has embedded cover art, the "Abba - Abba.jpg" image file is showed while the Ace of Base song is played.

The expected behavior that while the Ace of Base song is being played, the cover art for the Ace of Base song (embedded in the .mp3) should be viewed, even though there are other .jpg files in the same folder.

(Please don't bash me too much regarding my music tastes. :-) )
