Bug Description

I installed Rhyhmbox through Lubuntus Software Center - no errors.
In preferences>Music I checked the box to watch for new files in /home/Music - imports only a small fractions of my files (400MB/4.4GB) - no more busy loading bar in the bottom right

I click 'play' anyway and it closes down on me (quits the program).
Retrying a couple of times brings forward the same error - once it even quits before I can click the 'play' button.

Then disable 'watch for new files' and right-click an mp3 file to open it in rhythmbox, it jumps to rhythmbox and does nothing (also does not quit). Clicking 'play' now gives me the error message: Playback could not be started (in German) (null).

I suppose it is a Lubuntu problem, because it never occured to me on ubuntu.
