Bug Description

i used to have rhythmbox as an alarm clock by opening a terminal and doing

sleep 8h; rhythmbox --play

but since a couple of months (i think since 0.93) rhythmbox no longer responds to --play --pause or any other command documented in the man page...the rhythmbox window is focused but otherwise no reaction...

thanks

I think recent RB versions use rhythmbox-client instead.

Does rhythmbox-client --play work for you?
