** Description changed:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
Problem versions:
-----------------------
Rhythmbox 0.11.6 (apt-cache policy gives Installed:
0.11.6svn20081008-0ubuntu4.2)
Ubuntu 8.10, Jaunty Alpha-2
Regression behaviour (and possible clue to the bug's origin)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Problem does not occur in Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 (Rhythmbox 0.11.5) so this is a
-regression-.
However, there was a different problem (I will give more details in a
comment) with this version and I am now thinking that perhaps the fix for that
problem ended up creating this new bug. This is just idle speculation on my
part but it may also be a clue.
Steps to reproduce problem symptoms:
---------------------------------------------------
1. Open Rhythmbox (First close existing session if already open)
2. Place one or two songs into the Play Queue from say your Music library or
from an audio CD. (Right-click on each song and "Add to Play Queue")
3. Play the queue. (Highlight Play Queue in left sidebar and then click on
the Play toolbar button.
Results of this step:
The Play button visually changes to its depressed state and the songs in
the queue play. Each song disappears from the queue as it finishes playing.
- This is the expected (correct) behaviour so far. *But notice the
following.* When the queue has finished and there are no more songs shown in
the queue, the Play button still remains depressed. This is unexpected
behaviour to my mind and it may be associated with the main problem. Since
there are no more songs to play, I would expect the Play button to revert to
its normal unpressed state.

0.11.5 in which the Play button does revert to its normal unpressed state.)
4. Once the queue has finished playing, click the Play button to change it
back to its normal state. *Note:* This step does not seem to affect the
outcome whether it is done or not.
5. Create another short play queue as described above in step 2.
6. Try to play the new queue as described in step 3 above.
Results of this step:
- Although you can press and unpress the Play button, the song is not
played. This is the main unexpected behaviour symptom of this bug report. I
would expect that the new queue can be played just like the first one.

queue to start playing.
Workaround
----------------
- After highlighting the Play Queue folder tab on the right, just double-click
on the first song in the list on the right and the queue will start to play
despite the Play button not working.

Once the queue has started to play, the Play button can again be used to
play/pause songs.
