Similar, 13.04. None of rhythmbox, gnome, pulse, gstreamer, python, or gtk are affected by any PPAs, in fact as far as I can see none of the dependencies. In my case the music is in a multi-volume BTRFS mount which is auto-mounted. I don't see rhythmbox-metadata in my process list at all, instead it's the rhythmbox process itself that takes 100% of one CPU. The UI is often grey. Oddly, audio reproduction itself almost never glitches, but responding to multimedia keys or the buttons in the indicator widget sometimes takes up to a minute.

When I'm playing music from my second hard drive, which isn't auto-mounted, rhyhtmbox produces a high cpu-usage. In fact one of my four cpus is used completely by the process rhythmbox- metadata.
