Title:
  Rhythmbox long delay to start

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Opinion
Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application:
  New
Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On some systems, Rhythmbox can take a very long time (I measured 26
  seconds every time) to start. When run through console, I can also see
  warnings about mDNS not being available. It turns out that when the
  "DAAP Music Sharing" plugin is disabled in Rhythmbox settings, both
  the warnings and the long delay go away.

  This Ubuntu forums thread talks about the same problem:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1947738

  An ordinary user might be puzzled as to why nothing apparently happens
  when he tries to play some random MP3.

  Some possible solutions:
  - Fix the long delay with the plugin
  - Disable the DAAP plugin by default
  - Give the user some feedback that Rhythmbox is starting and what is causing the delay
