first time starting Rhythmbox on this install. I expected it to go and find the toonz, load them and start playing music.
It started up, stalled, and then closed.
I also got a message in Apport stating:
Cannot be reported.
Assertion failure but message cannot be retrieved. Apport does not support reporting these crashes.

Yesterdays updates cured the problem.
RB works fine now.
Many thanks to the crew!
