Combobox bug : cannot select a device

[®om]

In preferences, there is a combobox for selecting the cdrom device.

By default, there is no selection : the combobox is empty.
When I click on the combobox, I have a list of 1 item : my cd rom device.
If I click on it, nothing happens : the selected item is still empty, the device is not selected.
In gconf-editor, /apps/sound-juicer/device is still empty.

I don't know if it is a sound-juicer bug or a gtk bug (I think I had a similar problem in brasero), but this bug makes sound-juicer totally unusable (it cannot detect a cd).

I tested on two different computers having ubuntu 11.10, with different cdrom device, I have the same problem.

Can you start sound-juicer from the terminal and reproduce the error? This should give more specific clues on the error. I'd then suggest trying the --device=/dev/cdrom (or whatever /dev/ link points to your cd device) argument to see if that helps.

If I launch it from the terminal, there is no warning/error related to this problem.

I tried --device=/dev/cdrom and --device=/dev/dvd, I have this error :

Sound Juicer could not use the CD-ROM device '/dev/cdrom'
