Bug Description

I select a song from the song list and tap on it. before-scroll.png shows what I see after tapping the song. (Never mind the missing artwork, that's irrelevant.)

What I see is the album art, the song title and artist, and the "Play in music app" button.

What DO NOT see is that it's possible to play the song right there and then by tapping on the play icon, because the play icon is off screen. It is only after scrolling down (which I may well never do), that the play icon becomes visible (see after-scroll.png).

We need to find a way to fit all the relevant UI elements on the screen without scrolling. Otherwise, many users will miss that there is something they can do because it is off-screen.

Note that, in the first screen shot, the inline playback widget is visible (just barely) on Mako. However, this doesn't appear to be the case always. For other albums, it gets pushed off-screen completely.
