Bug Description

As per this bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647568, which I filed on the banshee side.

Overview:

Before Banshee 2.0, you could use a helper in Docky to control Banshee
via the dock through the context menu for the Banshee icon. This is no longer
possible with Banshee 2.0.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run Banshee while using Docky.
2. Right click on Banshee icon to bring up the context menu.

Actual Results:

Banshee icon remains the same, no cover art shown.
Context menu does not show options for Pause/Play, Prev and Next.

Expected Results:

When a song is playing or paused, the Banshee icon is replaced by the cover art
of the current song, and the time to song completion is displayed in a
circle/bubble overlaying the cover art.
Context menu shows options for Pause/Play, Prev, Next.

Other information:
Filed this bug under Docky on the suggestion of one of the Banshee developers, who says that this issue is 'probably caused by the rename from "banshee-1" to "banshee" that happened before (Banshee) version 1.9.6. In particular, this is the case
for the .desktop file.' On a related note, I've read in comments on OMG Ubuntu that a similar problem affects AWN users.
