[Bug 901895] Re: Rhythm box plays a song or two, then pauses, then crashes.

 

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or
challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these
instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can
be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable
apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will
automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more
efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

Title:
  Rhythm box plays a song or two, then pauses, then crashes.

Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Rhythm Box will play a song or two, or three, then it will pause and when I try to get it to play again, it will crash.  Prior to today, it never did that.  There were about 75 updates available today on the Ubuntu Update Manager and I updated almost all, except for two which I know I definitely do not need (I am not blind, nor do I have any hardware that a blind person would use so I believe I don't need to update any support for braille, which are the two updates that I declined).  The update didn't seem to have anything that directly referenced Rhythm Box.  Prior to today, Rhythm Box was working fine and I never had any problems with it.  I realize that as of lately, Banshee is the default music application, but ever since I started using Ubuntu, I got used to Rhythm Box, which is why I still use it.  I tried Banshee a couple of times, but Rhythm Box felt easier to me.  Yesterday, I had no problems with Rhythm Box but today I do.  I could be wrong but I am almost certain that the problem is directly linked to one of the updates from today, but being that there were 75 updates and none of them directly referenced Rhythm Box, it is too hard for me to pinpoint the possible perpetrator.
  I am using Ubuntu Studio 11.10 Desktop 64 bit
  Rhythm Box 2.90.1
  Let me know if I need to provide any more information
  I saw something similar referenced in Question #173589 but even though that question was reported as solved, I didn't see an explanation as to how to solve or fix it.
