You can try the following steps to figure where the issue is: 1. Rhythmbox ( RB ) uses gstreamer backend for playing audio files. This step confirms if the problem is with gstreamer or RB. Run the following commands from the gnome terminal. $ sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-tools $ gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri="file:///home/einar/Music/music/windows-music/EWHK.m4a" This should play the audio file. If this doesn't work, the issue is with gstreamer, not Rhythmbox. 2. If the above step goes fine, the issue is with Rhythmbox. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS ships with RB 3.3. This is quite old. Try RB 3.4.2 which is the highest version supported by 16.04. Run the following commands from the gnome terminal. This should take ~ 15 mins. Build Rhythmbox 3.4.2 from source ================================== $ sudo apt-get build-dep rhythmbox $ sudo apt-get install git $ git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/rhythmbox.git $ cd rhythmbox/ $ git checkout tags/v3.4.2 -b v3.4.2 $ ./autogen.sh $ make $ shell/rhythmbox --version Start Rhythmbox 3.4.2 ===================== $ shell/rhythmbox Try playing /home/einar/Music/music/windows-music/EWHK.m4a now.
