Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04

apt-cache policy rhythmbox

Import functionality doesn't work (both File and Directory)

Run rhytmbox, select menu Music then "Import file" or "Import folder" (any of them) then

expected behavior - it opens file/directory dialog and gives you option to choose and select (and import)
real behavior - dialog pops up "The folder contents could not be displayed. Operation not supported" and then no way to choose and select, only file dialog with dimmed/gray-out items.

hmm, I tried it on Ubuntu desktop PC at work (right now) and it didn't complain with popup window at all...

I run two those commands, and here is output
user@hostname:~$ lsb_release -rd

I will try it on home notebook (where bug initially had been noticed) again, from different user as you asked, only few hours later
