Rhythmbox doesn't resume after Pause from a CD track

[Andrei]

12.04 beta 2. I have a track playing from a CD (.wav file). If I hit Pause, then Play, it doesn't work. Not even if I change the track. It just starts spinning the CD in the CD-ROM drive for a couple of seconds, without any luck.

Fixes:
Ejecting the CD and putting it back in works.
Also, obviously, closing the rhythmbox process and starting it up again works.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better, however the report is missing some information, may you
please run rhythmbox as: rhythmbox --debug &> rhythmbox-debug.txt ;
perform the steps to reproduce the bug and attach that resulting log
file to the report? Thanks in advance!

Started process, opened a track, waited about 5 seconds, pressed Pause. Waited another 2-3 seconds, pressed Play. Again pressed Pause (even though the button was stuck on Play), exited the process.

This is, if not Critical, pretty much High. So who is in charge of this ?

My logging of playing a CD then pausing.

Bump. Seems like no one is in charge of this. Oh well, might just keep bumping everyday.

Please stop that. This bug has been forwarded upstream for you; there's nothing more for us to do in Ubuntu until there is a fix there.

[Andrei (andrei-doom)]

Well I'm sorry if I find this whole procedure a waste of time, but this is getting annoying FAST. How many more years need to pass in order for this to even be READ by any engineer ? 2, 5, 10 ? It's downright absurd.

Andrei, much of what is on Ubuntu is community driven, so the people that handle most of the bugs in the Linux ecosystem are doing this without payed for.

When it is not fast enough it was everytime since Linux arrise in a way that the people who feel unconfortable with a bug were doing the fixing by thereself. This has changed a bit in the last years and a Linux user has have today not also a developer(which was common for long). Seeing that there are tons of engineres in background is not correct. Primary every linux user has the opportunity to become a developer. Thing of that we do not have the Billon dollar infrastructure of Microsoft, where you absolutly correct can come arround whith the expectation that there should be enough engineers.

Search for "Ubuntu become developer"(guides and tutorials are there) and give youself a try is my suggestion(I am also affected of this bug).

WOOOOOWWWWWWW THIS IS THE GREATEST NEWS OF THE YEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHO WOULD'VE KNOWN ???? :faceslap:
The distro is also backed up by quite a big corporation, so this is NOT an excuse. NOT at ALL !

"Search for "Ubuntu become developer"(guides and tutorials are there) and give youself a try is my suggestion(I am also affected of this bug)."
Have you stopped to think for a couple of seconds (just a couple) that MAYBE SOME people using this distribution (or any other distro for that matter) are ALREADY developers ? And that SUBSEQUENTLY, they DON'T have TIME OR are just NOT INTERESTED in investing minutes/hours debugging some weird ass bug just because the software development model being used by the OS is just fucked up ?
You didn't think now, did you ? Thought so..
