Public bug reported:
I am on 17.10 now but I also experienced the following behaviour all
recent Ubuntu versions.
What I expect to happen: After closing Rhythmbox by pressing "x" in the menu
bar, the program should really close and music should stop playing.
What actually happens: Rhythmbox keeps running in the background. To
finally stop the music I have to press pause in the Gnome shell addon
(17.10) or press the audio button in the top panel and pause the music
there (17.04 and prior versions).
I know that this a "feature" rather than a real bug. However, this behaviour
very counterintuitive - all other programs (included in Ubuntu by default)
close on "x". Plus it does not even have any benefit on usability- we have that
neat dock to park programs that run in the background.
Therefore I see no reason that Rhythmbox should in this regard behave
different and I would call it a bug in user experience. I think it
should be changed, at least in future Ubuntu versions.
