Bug Description

Binary package hint: banshee

When I start Bashee (either with synapse or from the indicator-sound menu), it starts muted and the controls do not appear under the indicator-sound. When Banshee is started and I click on Banshee from the indicator-sound, it starts another instance of Banshee which is also muted. The little < mark that usually appear on the left from Banshee in indicator-sound when it is started is not there.

Rhythmbox works as expected.

I tried to reboot, because I has the computer without reboot for a log time, but did not solve the issue.

Any idea how to make Banshee play music again?

Well, it is working now. I suppose it was something conected to banshee upgrade.

I got it working again this way:

I started Banshee, went to Preferences, general tab. Unchecked Sound menu integration (or how it was called)

I restarted Banshee. When I looked again to the General tab in preferences dialog, the options there have changed already, the option I have unchecked was not there anymore, but Banshee started to play music again..

I suppose it had something to do with some of the upgrades...

Thanks..
