Public bug reported: All my music is located on an external USB drive. In Rhythmbox music library location is set to ~/Music. In ~/Music I created a symbolic link to a folder on external drive (/media/external/Music). The USB cable I use to connect the drive to PC sometimes loses connection. After that Rhythmbox pauses playback because it can no longer read the file, but when drive reconnects again Rhythmbox rewrites ID3 tags of almost all the queued mp3 files.
