This isn't actually a bug but a problem with MP3 licencing. Ubuntu (like many other Linux distributions) cannot distribute MP3 support with the system due to licencing problems.
You can install the extra codecs required by having a read of these wiki pages: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Amarok https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats Rejecting this as a bug, hopefully the above two links will provide you with what you require. ** Changed in: Ubuntu Status: Unconfirmed => Rejected -- doesn't play mp3 https://launchpad.net/bugs/54080 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
