Bug Description
Changing the ID3 tags (e.g. 'Title') of multiple files in Rhythmbox will write the first changed 'Title' to all subsequently changes files. How to reproduce:
1. Open Rhythmbox in Ubuntu 12.04
2. Select an Album or Artist with more than one song
3. Change the title of the first song (right click, preferences, change title, next or submit)
4. Change the title of the next song and so on
5. Open the folder for that Album in Nautilus and check the ID3 tags in the preferences of each file
6. Recognize that all changed titles have the title of the first changed song
Example
Before change:
Abba - blablub1
Abba - blablub2
Abba - blablub3
Change in Rhythmbox to:
Abba - Dancing Queen
Abba - Thank you for the music
Abba - Money Money Money
After change (in ID3 tags of the files):
Abba - Dancing Queen
Abba - Dancing Queen (although this is 'Thank you for the music')
Abba - Dancing Queen (although this is 'Money Money Money')
I could reproduce this error on 3 completely different PCs with completely different songs.
