Bug Description

Some music tracks exist twice in my library. Meaning they show up twice in Noise and I have them twice in my music folder. Once I noticed this in Noise, I deleted one copy from my music folder and hit the "rescan library" button, but they didnt disappear from my music library.

the duplicate status could be wrong, as this same problem has just occurred for me in the last day. It may be connected with importing audio from a removable drive, as now the noise app wants to try and scan this removable drive for the files, even though i have copies (that Noise copied in for me) in Noise's designated Media Library folder ( Home/Me/Music).
