Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Version 0.12.5-0ubuntu5.2

Karmic Koala 32bit

Essentially, rhythmbox requires the play command twice in order to play
a song which is not in its music library.  This breaks any compatibility
with software that would use it as an audio player (gpodder, nautilus
etc.)

To reproduce.

1) Find a music file on your machine which is NOT in the rhythmbox
library.

2) Right-Click the file and select "open with rhythmbox"

3)  If rhythmbox is already playing a file, notice that the file being
played will pause, but the new file will not be loaded unless this step
is repeated.  If rhythmbox is not already playing a file, the file may
or may not load, but will not play.  If rhythmbox was not running at
all, it will open, but not load or play the file.


My expectation:  Rhythmbox should play any audio file the first time, 
regardless of whether or not it has been previously added to the library.
