Compiz causes textoverlay in Amarok 'Now Playing' dialogue

[jtreach]

Binary package hint: compiz

Compiz causes the text in the 'Now Playing' dialogue in Amarok to overlay with seemingly random bits of text. This only happens after changing workstations and will go away if I minimise and then restore amarok. I submitted this bug to the amarok dev team but they reckoned it was caused by compiz.

This is on Ubuntu 8.04 with amarok 1.4.9.1 Compiz is whatever the latest version in the software channel is.

I am also getting this behavior.
Its not only the text, it is also the amarok progress bars which are shown when "building library" for example, which stay there even after the operation is completed and only disappear when amarok is minimised/restored.
Amarok is the only app that I have noticed this happening in.

Ubuntu 8.04
Compiz 0.7.4
Amarok 1.4.9.1

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Could you try to reproduce the same with Ubuntu 8.10 or 9.04? Thanks in advance.

I can't reproduce it in Ubuntu 8.10 - It appears to be fixed for me, thankyou.
