Oh my, what a bad workaround. I totaly understand that this behavior is confusing for some people and admittedly it confused my wife (Until I explained the feature and showed her how to disable it.)

This "bug" solution only creates yet another problem... Now _nobody_ can start RB minimized, including all the people who actually liked this _feature_ (It's not a bug, it's by design and many people liked this behavior.)

Couldn't we just set this feature to be disabled by default that could be if the user wanted to, rather than breaking the feature all together?

This bug's "solution" is the cause of this unanswerable question: http://askubuntu.com/questions/125224/how-do-i-hide-rhythmbox-to-just-show-a-tray-icon

Also countless other Google results if you search for "How do I start Rhythmbox minimized?" || "How do I start Rhythmbox in quiet/silent/hidden mode?"
