Rhythmbox doesn't show when using 'Show Rhythmbox' from tray icon menu

[buratinas]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Background:

1. Multi-workspace setup.
2. Rhythmbox window is shown on another workspace.

User actions:

1. Click on 'Show rhythmbox' button from tray icon.

Expected outcome:

1. Rhythmbox either shows on current workspace or minimizes on another and shows on current workspace with the second click.

Actual effect:

1. Nothing happens. Rhythmbox neither shows nor minimizes.

Quite irritating bug as I have to leave my work, search for workspace rhythmbox was left on, select the song/drag the window, switch to the workspace I was working on.

i'm at least mildly irritated, so maybe you could jack the priority a bit. when i click the icon that i placed in the top left of screen, i get another icon on the left side. when i click on that icon, i am then given the option of "show rhythmbox".

as a former command line mplayer user, i'm making quite an accommodation by using a wmp wannabe. maybe you could humor me a little?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. A new version of Rhythmbox is available on Maverick and we are wondering if this bug is still an issue for you with that version? Could you please test and comment back? Thanks in advance.

There is the new sound indicator applet in Ubuntu 10.10. When I click on "Rhythmbox" it comes reliable to the foreground. But the multi-desktop support is still missing.

I think it's fixed as of rhythmbox(0.13.2-0ubuntu2)

I am using Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty)
