Public bug reported: I'm using Banshee because I need Amazon download integration (plus all my ratings etc. are in Banshee).
So I have a playlist based on my highest-rated songs. I double-click it to start playing and I have random sort enabled. Every 3rd or 4th song, after it's done playing the previous song and switches to the new song, the playback hangs: it just doesn't play anything. The timing slider doesn't move, nothing plays. Banshee is still in play mode, not paused. I can click the pause/play button as many times as I want but nothing happens. However if I click on the playback slider and drag it slightly, then the song starts playing and continues on working just fine... until a few more songs when it gets stuck again. This only ever happens right when a new song is started: it never happens in the middle of a song. Rinse, repeat, forever. ~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 ~$ apt-cache policy banshee banshee: Installed: 2.4.0-2ubuntu1 Candidate: 2.4.0-2ubuntu1 Version table: *** 2.4.0-2ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: banshee (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to banshee in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1015115 Title: playback hangs every few songs Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm using Banshee because I need Amazon download integration (plus all my ratings etc. are in Banshee).
