I have also been experiencing this bug since I moved to Linux Mint 13 Maya with Cinnamon desktop, based on 12.04, about June 2012. As with the others, just touching the progress slider button in the player, Rhythmbox or Banshee, will start the music again. Strangely, it always stops with certain artists music (e.g. Bob Dylan) and never with others. Mainly MP3 format, but a few flac and ogg.
I'm about to try out Clementine, to see if this works around it.
