Comment 14 for bug 883023

I experienced this bug, and I have found a temporary fix (I use Oneiric):

I don't know if it works the GUI way, but since I prefer the command-line anyways:

-------------You Must be An Administrator on your local machine------------------------------------------------------------
sudo apt-get remove banshee # Do NOT use --purge
sudo apt-get install banshee
sudo shutdown -r now # You could also use 'sudo reboot now'
-------------You Must be An Administrator on your local machine------------------------------------------------------------

Or we could summarize it on one line (This installs a few extensions too, and it also updates your other packages - because this is what I used | Copy and paste this on one line in the Terminal) :

sudo apt-get remove banshee; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install banshee banshee-extension-soundmenu banshee-extension-ubuntuonemusicstore; sudo apt-get upgrade; shutdown -r now

I was actually pretty amazed no one tried reinstalling.
