Today (my second day of 12.04 beta 1 testing) Rhythmbox starts to crash randomly while playing music. Sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes after 3 seconds. Sometimes Rhythmbox hangs for a while (about 30 seconds) before it crashes.

It sometimes crashes for me upon launch before ever seeing the UI appear.

My Rhythmbox keeps on crashing randomly when playing music, purchasing music, browsing music, doing nothing. Completely unusable at the moment. I'm on 12.04 beta 2.

I just started experiencing this issue today when listening to MP3 or m4a files. Historically this has not been an issue. I have been using Rhythmbox since Beta1 and for me this appears to be a new issue. That being said, I have usually been listening on a different laptop, but they are both running 12.04.

I don't know what has happened, but now Rhythmbox seems to be stable again.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running apport-collect <bug #> and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
