Title:
  Audio CD works then stops working

Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am attempting to play Audio CDs with rhythmbox. When I insert a disc
  into the drive, it appears in Rhythmbox. Initially, the tracks are
  listed with the correct times, but no names or album information. I am
  able to play the CD at this point. No more than 5 seconds later, a
  MusicBrainz message appears stating that it "could not find this album
  on MusicBrainz." At this point, the Album name appears, but all of the
  tracks completely disappear from the CD Track Playlist, playback cuts
  out, and the CD is no longer playable. This issue occurs for more than
  one CD.

  Rhythmbox is able to play back other audio files of various types (I
  have tried wav, mp3, m4a, flac, and ogg).

  The folder "~/.gvfs/cdda mount on sr0" exists and is accessible,
  containing the correct number of tracks, and displaying the correct
  times when accessing the right-click -> properties menu item for each
  track. The CD appears as an "Audio Disc" in "computer:///".

  When attempting to copy all tracks off the disc with nautilus, the
  file transfer freezes at a variable period of time into the operation
  (assuming a read error of some description).

  I have attempted to open the CD using VLC media player with success.
  VLC displays the correct CD Text for all tracks and can play all
  tracks on the CD. My system is also dual-boot with windows 7. I am
  able to open, play back, and rip the contents of the Audio CDs with
  Windows Media Player with no issues. On a side note, it did not appear
  as though media player attempted to read the CD text as none of the CD
  information (album name, song titles) appeared.

  I have tried:
  * apt-get purge and reinstall rhythmbox
  * apt-get purge and reinstall gvfs-backends 

  I have just installed Ubuntu 10.10 a few days ago. I was previously
  using 9.04 with no issues.

  Some Information:
  ==============
  Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64
  uname -a: Linux kuroi 2.6.35-24-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 2 02:41:37 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  Nautilus 2.32.0
  Rhythmbox 0.13.1
  VLC 1.1.4
  GStreamer 0.10.30

  The cdrom section of lshw is:
             *-cdrom

  One other thing that may be worth mentioning is the fact that the DVD
  drive has some firmware adware (although I'm sure LG wouldn't call it
  that). When the drive is closed and empty, it registers as containing
  a disc labelled "Bluebirds," which appears to be some drag+drop
  burning software or something of a similar description. When the drive
  is open or the drive contains a disc and is closed, it is as it would
  normally be.

  Due to the fact that I am having partial success in nautilus, limited
  success in rhythmbox, and total success in vlc, I am unsure as to
  where the problem lies for this issue. If I can provide any further
  useful information please let me know.

  Thanks in advance,
  -Daniel
