playlist doesn't update when switching artist with foreign name

[franco]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

When I want to switch from an artist to another with foreign characters in name (Japanese), the playlist does not always update and stays with the last selected artist's songs.
It works with some pairs of foreign artist in one way only too, and it works when choosins a non-foreign artist name between.

here is an example

It doesn't show anything about that in the console with starting rhythmbox in terminal with the -d mode

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version. Thanks in advance and sorry for the late response.
