Bug Description

If I run rhythmbox with an external device connected (Samsung Galaxy S2 in mass storage mode), then rhythmbox hangs indefinitely and needs to be force quit.
Nothing useful from the terminal output while this is happening...

me@precisepc:~$ rhythmbox

Note the device is accessible from within Nautilus without any issue even while rhythmbox is hanging.

Also, it is showing in the rhythmbox interface as "12 Gb Filesystem".

As soon as I pull the USB cable out, rhythmbox interface becomes immediately responsive.
