Public bug reported:
At boot the indicator-sound is showing a player that we cannot launch and with
all playback controls disabled.
It shows the "Media Player", not the music app.
After some investigation I saw that the following player is appearing on
the dbus:
(process:7236): indicator-sound-WARNING **: media-player-list-
mpris.vala:115: Player appeared: org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.MediaHub
(process:7236): indicator-sound-WARNING **: media-player-list-
mpris.vala:118: Player desktop entry: mediaplayer-app
I'm not sure the desktop entry is valid and, in fact, the user cannot do
anything with this player.
I also noticed that, when starting the music-app, it does not make any
new player to appear on the dbus. (we only have the media-hub).
I'm not sure how to proceed with this, because some people has asked why
we are showing that player at the beginning.
I understand the media-hub is a bridge for sound on the phone, but I'm
not sure what we do now is correct.
I was thinking on ignoring the media-hub player at startup, but if then
we don't get any other player when we start a music app the indicator
won't have any player at all.
Maybe the media-hub should publish the information of the actual player
when it starts playing music.
