Rhythmbox freezes after every song

[Dan Dart]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

(Clue: It's not the 2.6.35 kernel I'm using, it happened in the Ubuntu stock kernel)

Rhythmbox freezes after every song. When I go to use the Force Quit applet it appears to disappear but the tray icon is still present, so relaunching it won't work, I have to run "killall rhythmbox".

First started to happen probably one or two days ago.

What other info do we need?

Difficult to reproduce, it may have been because of something else. Investigating further.

I have the same problem. I pinpointed it to having my Iphone plugged in via USB. I have not accepted it as an Ipod device, if that matters. But the moment I unplug my phone, everything works smoothly again (after a restart of Rhythmbox).

Confirmed, that's likely what it was. Mine was not properly being detected as an ipod device.

Yes, my iOS4 device seems to prompt that off. It asked to be initialised on plugin. Since I have downgraded to 3.1.3 I can sync again and don't get that message. Also, using pmcenery's source fix for libimobiledevice1 didn't work.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running apport-collect <bug #> and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
