I have also noticed this behaviour just now also while using music-applet with rhythmbox. On my Ubuntu 8.10 system it was also a python process that was taking up lots of CPU (~60%). I removed music-applet from my panel and re-added it again and CPU activity went back to normal.

I ran strace on the python process and got a whole load of this:

$ strace -p 6317
Process 6317 attached - interrupt to quit
