Hey, I have got the same problem as described above.. There are some mp3 files in my rhythmbox database without time information. Result is, that you can play those songs but you cannot set the seekbar.
I had a look at the RB xml-configuration files. Among others there is ~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmbox.xml. I figured out that the duration of these songs is also missing there.
meaning that the whole entry <duration>111</duration> is missing.

I tried to find the difference between those songs with no probs and the faulty ones, but couldn't see anything.
I used mp3info to read the file information and everything seems to be just fine.
After that I did a backup of the file rhythmbox.xml and started RB again.. the database was empty and RB started to scan my music folder.. the same happend again. and actually, now even more files are without the duration information. Imho this means that there's only a faulty scanning process, but no corrupt mp3 files.

I also tried
> rhythmbox -d but the output had nothing todo with this issue..

so long...
