Bug Description
Rhythmbox displays album art itself at the top of the window, among the controls. It also sends album art to notify-osd for display in notification bubbles, and in indicator-sound. Rhythmbox is using the wrong album art much of the time. In the instant case, the mp3 files have no embedded album art, so I would expect either the correct album art is downloaded, or none is displayed (default image or blank). Instead, album art is apparently picked randomly from my music collection.

A workaround is to clear this folder. rhythmbox/ album-art
~/.cache/
No idea how the files were named the way the are, but RB assignes them to songs that don't have an album cover and somehow fit into the criteria.
