Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
Overview:
Shuffle mode seems to not be actually random: maybe the random seed isn't
randomized. Given the same list of songs, hitting Play in a list always starts
on the same song.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select some items in the artist/album lists such that 3 or 4 songs are
displayed.
2. Turn on Shuffle mode, but not Repeat.
3. Hit play. Click Next through the list until it's done. Note the order.
4. Repeat 3 until convinced that this has a very high probability of not
being random.
Expected Results:
Different order of songs from the previous round at least most runs through
the list.
Actual Results:
Same order each time.
