Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Looking for a method to start RB playing, and since there is not a launch option that lets you do so, I tried using the command "rhythmbox & rhythmbox-client --play", which should in theory start RB and THEN make it start playing right away.

It does not work. RB starts, but does not play. I tried "rhythmbox && sleep 20 && rhythmbox-client --play", too, but I got the same results.

Thanks for your report, i don't know if that's the functionality that rhythmbox-client should provide, but anyways, should be send upstream by someone interested on it, thanks you.
