"Next Song" doesn't work with Last.fm

[Dan Lenski]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

First, I would just like to say that I am very happy to see Last.fm support added to Rhythmbox... thank you!

Now, the one problem I have is that the "Next Song" button doesn't work for me! When I am playing my Neighbor Radio stream, if I press the "Next Song" button nothing happens other than that button getting grayed out! The only way to skip a song is to stop and then restart the stream, which causes a new song to be chosen.

( Because of this bug, as well as the lack of tag and neighbor display, I mostly use BMPx for listening to Last.fm. I would consider Rhythmbox to be a much better and more polished player overall, but BMPx does have the edge in terms of a really nice Last.fm interface. )

This bug has not been marked as a duplicate of anything, and from my searching, has not been previously reported. Reopening.

The "Next Song" button provided when listening to a last.fm stream does not work. When clicking this button, it simply greys out, but the stream keeps playing. The track can instead be skipped by double clicking the station in the playlist, and pressing the next multimedia button on my keyboard also works. The Ban Song / Love Song buttons do not function either, instead just greying out.

This bug has been mentioned in the rhythmbox group on last.fm at http://www.last.fm/group/Rhythmbox/forum/8096/_/385298

Note that this is not Bug #92804 which discusses the behaviour of the "Previous / Next" buttons on the left. This bug is about the "Next Song / Ban Song / Love Song" buttons on the right in the last.fm section.

It's a duplicate of bug 129665, thanks.
