Hi..

I posted this in the developers forum as a reply but I figured that
this might also be of general interest, so my apologies for the
cross-posting.
========================================================================
It DOES work.....sort of--on Rhapsody, at least.

I, too, had this same issue...runnng Duet/7.4.1 and ran up against the
dead-end/bug report.  But, after fiddling with it a bit I found that
shuffle does work, just not the way it should.  

I've only verified that this works with my own Rhapsody playlists, not
any of the "pre-packaged" ones and I don't use Napster, so can't vouch
for that one.  After a number of experiments, here's how to do it...it's
a bit of a workaround, but not bad:

Leave the shuffle function OFF and start playing the first song on your
playlist.  Once your first song is playing, go back to your menu and
then select shuffle>song.  The little shuffle icon then appears at the
bottom (of my Duet screen, in this case).  Then you can go back to the
"Now Playing" screen, if you want.  In my experience, it'll shuffle from
that point on (it's actually shuffling my Rhapsody "oldies" playlist as
I write).

You have to perform this little ritual each time you want to shuffle a
playlist as it doesn't seem to hold once you go to another playlist.

Hope this helps and let me know if it works for any of you...
