Public bug reported:

Hello,

My application is asking GnomeMusic various data via the (MPRIS2) DBus-
interface.

When asking "DesktopEntry", GnomeMusic returns value "gnome-music" (meaning 
gnome-music.desktop).  
This is probably wrong. 

Ubuntu 19.04 has no "gnome-music.desktop" file in its system.
$ updatedb
$ locate "gnome-music.desktop"

The right answer would be "org.gnome.Music". That is 
/usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Music.desktop

$ sudo updatedb
$ locate  ".desktop" | grep -i music
/usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Music.desktop

Please see: 
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/mpris-spec/latest/Media_Player.html#Property:DesktopEntry

Stick to the rules people !
It is hard to communicate without.

Please, kindly fixit ASAP.

ps. Totem has a similar bug.
