Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
I am running Ubuntu version 8.04 Hardy. Rhythmbox version "0.11.5.0ubuntu8". I
have all mp3 codecs, and can normally play media on Rhythmbox, however
sometimes under conditions that I cannot seem to figure out yet, when I
double-click to play a song, nothing happens. The play arrow next to the song
in the library list comes up, the song info comes on up top, but it seems to
get stuck at 0:00 or just does not play. If I try clicking again, the play
arrow in the library list switches to pause, and Rhythmbox does not freeze, but
it just will not play. I had crossfading turned on through all of this. I did
turn crossfading off and restarted Rhythmbox, but it still will not play. I
have not rebooted the computer since I turned crossfading off, but I would not
know if that actually helped either since it does not always do this, and when
I reboot it fixes the problem for a period of time anyway. I opened the System
Log from "System > Administration" and while looking through the logs, I have
found the following which may or may not help you, but here it is anyway.
This error was taken directly from both syslog and user.log. This error shows
up every time I double-click the media to play:
"pulseaudio[5808]: module-alsa-sink.c: Error opening PCM device front:0: Device
or resource busy"
