Title:
  Unable to add podcasts in rhythmbox

Status in rhythmbox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am unable to add a podcast in rhythmbox.

  Procedure:
  1) Open rhythmbox
  2) select "Podcasts" under "Library" on the left
  3) Press the "Add" button
  4) Enter a URL from a podcast feed that you know should work because you can see it in firefox, e.g. http://feeds.feedburner.com/Rsaudio (typing or copy/pasting appears to make no difference.)
  5) Note that the "subscribe" button isn't lit up, so click "search"
  6) You get a message saying "Unable to load the feed. Check your network connection." and the podcast URL is 
  7) Subscribe is now enabled, so press that.

  Result:
  8) the feed URL disappears from the list, but you aren't subscribed to it

  Expected result:
  8) you are subscribed to it.

  Notes:
  * My network connection is active
  * It is managed by network manager, although my desktop is xmonad and I don't have the applet visible (but apparently it is running)
