Comment 3 for bug 1856745

So far, I was only able to reproduce it with that one file.
But it's not 100% reproducible, which leads me to believe it's a bug.
When started with the "--debug" flag, it doesn't freeze and when
Amarok is currently focused, it doesn't always freeze.
When Amarok is minimized, without the debug flag active, it freezes
permanently on that one file.
I will try again today, to rule out other songs in the playlist. It's
a bit hard, considering seeking apparently also does not work.
