Rhythmbox sound cuts out, then play head goes at super speed before getting stuck

[Ben Linsey-Bloom]

I'm not sure exactly how to recreate this as I was listening to rhythmbox in the background.

My library (21000 songs) was on shuffle. It reached the end of a song then there was no more sound. I opened the rhythmbox window to see what happened and the interface made it look as if it was still playing (in the middle of a song that I know has no silent parts). Then the playback head started going at double or triple speed going through random songs very quickly until it froze.

When I clicked 'pause' and then 'play' again it went back to normal without actually crashing the application.
