Bug Description

When Rhythmbox is hidden e.g. using the close button, and I try to show the window again by clicking "Rhythmbox" in the sound indicator menu, the window is opened/shown, but behind other windows (if these have been opened/received focus since hiding Rhythmbox). I seems, the window keeps its position in the stack of windows and does not get raised to the top or receive focus when re-shown.

#646733 sounds similiar, but is specific to Unity. This is on Maverick Desktop using Metacity, no Compiz.

Thanks for reporting this. This is still though a bug to do with the window manager and not indicator sound. All the sound service can do is call the DBus MPRIS Raise method. What happens after is out of my control.

Sorry, I did search a lot before submitting, but only now I found #692189, which seems to describe the problem exactly.
