Pause the music and then close. It will close. Ctrl+w also works. You forget not everyone using gnome-shell, so the dock is not available for everyone. Even default-shell doesn't use any dock.
It is widely accepted behavior in Unity, Xubuntu and Budgie and even in KDE when using indicator-sound. It simply minimize to tray/dock hiding it's main window. There are other software which does that (gnome- calendar, gnome-software etc.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1740700 Title: rhythmbox keeps playing music after closing Status in rhythmbox package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: 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.
