[Bug 270206] Re: Rhythmbox should never start minimised to tray

 

That was a feature not a bug and a very useful one especially now that rhythmbox-client --play will open and start the player
which i had been using a script for on lucid that opens the player waits for it to open then tells it to play till it does
now i have to close the window every time i login 
the --hide option on rhythmbox-client does nothing nor does any option in the status plugin to re-enable it work
i have tried using devils pie on it but it minimizes it to the window list
Rhythmbox 0.13.3
Ubuntu - natty

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: rhythmbox

  I have noticed that RB remembers whether it was minimised to tray when
  it closed, and starts in the same state. Some users might find that
  confusing, however. My mother does actually, sometimes she opens RB to
  listen to her music and she doesn't realise that small white square on
  the notification area, so she thinks the program didn't start
  properly.

  I think RB should NEVER start minimised to tray, unless it's specified
  through a command option.
