Well WeatherGod, I did the eject through rhythmbox. the ipod (5th gen 80GB dos formatted) did get removed from the desktop. There was never a message via Ubuntu/Rhythmbox indicating ok to disconnect, but the waiting minutes after the Ipod said it was OK to disconnect had no effect. I ran these steps twice. The first time attempting to add music to a playlist, and the second time trying to create a new playlist with music. The first time, I got a segfault in messages (seen below). The second time, no seg fault but no new playlist.
Using "safely remove" seems to only sometimes work for me. I haven't found the exact magic sequence of steps to have a reliable work around.
