Bug Description
Rhythmbox adds random music files to its library when you double-click them in nautilus just to listen to them. That's a terrible behaviour (I don't want random, and more often than not not-music ones, files in my Music Library) but easily fixable by changing the default Music player to Totem (which is called "Movie Player" but that's another thing). On the other hand when I want to actually "Listen to [my] Music" I launch rhythmbox because that's where the Music is. Unfortunately Unity doesn't understand that I want to use a different applications for both tasks and decides that my music player is Totem, which is wrong.
I'm not really sure if there is a good way to solve that other than making Rhythmbox handle playing random tracks better then it does now (also better than Banshee does that) but it would be nice if I could use this button - maybe add a way to override it?
Considering that the big buttons buttons from the home dash are being removed for the next version, I imagine that this won't be an issue for you later.
