Comment 24 for bug 273294

The music just stopped playing again and I got the same error again. Reissuing the gnomevfs-ls command fixed it again. The computer connects via 802.11g on an Atheros chipset which may be the cause for some minor network instability. It seems that although Ubuntu as such handles this fine, it throws Rhythmbox out of its zen...

It might be relevant to note that Rhythmbox worked fine out of the box up until a week ago (on the same WiFi connection), when update manager replaced some packages. What update manager replaced is beyond me, but if I can get some guidance, I'd be happy to provide input if it can help.
