I have STABLE MAIN in my sources.list, but SC hasn't updated
automatically.  I did check by doing -sudo aptitude update && sudo
aptitude safe-upgrade- but got nothing.  I've had a quick look at the
repo, and can't see the .deb;  has it been packaged yet?

Can't see a .deb there yet, either.  [EDIT: one there now;  but I'll
wait for STABLE to update]

I havn't installed any myself.  Are you suggesting also unselecting all
the ones included with SC, as listed on the Plugins page of 'Settings'?

That's what I've not been able to discern yet - what conditions it
occurs under, and how to reproduce it.  It's what I was referring to
when I said "it looks like I may need to get down to some systematic
solo investigation".

Moi?!  How could you suggest such a thing?!  ;-)  But, seriously,
you're right, in general, of course;  but in this case, I can't imagine
there's any configuration involved here.

Yes, I did check, but couldn't see anything with 'track progress bar'. 
(But is that the correct name/description to refer to the bar on the
screen saver that gets filled in as the track is playing and shows what
proportion of it has played?  I don't know;  and how would I find out? 
Guessing the right technical names to use in searches is always a bit
of a puzzle, isn't it?)

Thanks, as always for your help.  In the absence of any 'Me, too!'
replies to this thread, looks like I'll be doing some more solo
research!
