Title:
  Sound files are opended by Music Player even though Rhythmbox is
  preffered application

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  Invalid
Status in OEM Priority Project:
  Confirmed
Status in OEM Priority Project oneiric series:
  New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  With the default install off Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) the sound files are
  set to open with Movie Player by default (in Nautilus) even though in
  System/Preferences/Preferred Application/Multimedia the Multimedia
  Player is set to Rythmbox Music Player (also by default).

  How to reproduce this bug: 
  1 Make default install of Ubuntu 9.10
  2 open the examples that ship with Ubuntu (in Nautilus) 
  3 click on the ogg sound file (e.g. Aesop's Fables,_Volume_1...spx) (in Nautilus) 

  Result: 
  Movie Player opens and plays the file.

  4 Try to set the preferred Application for Multimedia to Rythmbox
  Music Player  (System/Preferences/Preferred Application/Multimedia)

  Result: 
  Rythmbox Music Play is already set by default.

  This is somewhat surprising. :-)

  Expected result:
  a) use a Music Player to play music by default (and not a Video Player - this is perhaps just a matter of naming)
  b) Nautilus should respect the setting in Preferred Applications (default in Nautilus should always be equal to the setting in Preferred Applications)

  To summarize: 
  The setting in Preferred Applications do not seem to have any affect on the default application with which Nautilus opens a file and there is no hint if there are additional steps necessary in order make Nautilus respect the users choice for the default (preferred) application.
