Bug Description

Binary package hint: pidgin-musictracker

When Pidgin is running but offline, with the Music Tracker plugin enabled, whenever a new song starts in Rhythmbox it causes Pidgin to spontaneously log in to MSN! The status dropdown keeps showing Offline, but my MSN contacts spontaneously show up in the contact list, and I am visible to my contacts and can chat with them.

The only way to resolve it is to go online and then offline again (since I can't select Offline in the status dropdown, as it is already showing that; it will log back on to MSN again on the next song change though), or to quit Pidgin altogether.
