sorry but I'm really against this Fix.  
audio file previewing is one of our habits and it is a great feature to test a song without having to open Banshee or any other audio software. 
At least , we should have an option to turn it ON or OFF.  We should review this bug

  Mousing over an audio file on the desktop should not preview it.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  I was working on one desktop when I suddenly heard music playing.
  Thinking it was a Flash video somewhere in Firefox, I switched
  desktops using the keyboard and it stopped playing.  I switched back
  and it started playing again.  After a minute of this back and forth I
  noticed that my mouse was hovering over an mp3 file on the desktop.

  While the audio preview is a useful feature in nautilus windows, I'm
  not sure it makes sense for the desktop.
