I think this bug is caused by a race condition...

I can confirm the behavior described by the bug submitter. When things
are done in the order the bug submitter describes (see test cases
above), there are two processes:

elparis  31327  0.0  0.0  17092  2296 ?        Sl   18:21   0:00 rhythmbox-client --play-uri file:///home/elparis/Music/14%20Iron%20Maiden.mp3
elparis  31330 33.5  1.0 273840 40760 ?        Sl   18:21   0:01 /usr/bin/rhythmbox

However, Rhythmbox is just sitting there doing nothing.

But, if Rhythmbox is started before using the Music lens, then things
work properly. My guess is that rhythmbox-client runs before rhythmbox
is ready so rhythmbox never receives the command to play the song.

I don't know who starts rhythmbox, rhythmbox-client or the Music lens,
though.

Title:
  Rhythmbox does not start playing tracks when they are selected from
  music lens

Status in “unity-lens-music” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Test case:
  Open music lens, double click a track 
  or
  Open music lens, preview a track > click play

  What's expected - 
  Rhythmbox should open & start playing the selected track

  What happens - 
  Rhythmbox opens with no track playing, selected or queued

  The same occurs with albums.

  On the other hand if one r. clicked a track in nautilus > open in
  rhythmbox, Rb would open & start playing

  So either you've got the wrong command for Rb via the Dash or it's not
  capable of working properly  from the Dash, if the later than you
  should go back to Banshee as default supplied  as it  works fine from
  Dash/music lens
