When running rhythmbox and playing an audio file an error appears "Couldn't stop playback Unknown playback error" When running rhythmbox -d, I get the following output: (11:47:39) [0x86af410] [rb_shell_player_get_playing_song_duration] rb-shell-player.c:2926: Did not get playing entry : return -1 as length (11:47:39) [0x86af410] [rb_header_sync] rb-header.c:355: syncing with entry = (nil) (11:47:39) [0x86af410] [rb_header_sync] rb-header.c:426: not playing (11:47:39) [0x86af410] [rb_shell_player_sync_buttons] rb-shell-player.c:2666: syncing with source 0x8942cf0 (11:47:39) [0x86af410] [rb_shell_playing_source_changed_cb] rb-shell.c:1889: playing source changed (11:47:39) [0x86af410] [error_cb] rb-shell-player.c:3109: exiting error hander (11:47:39) [0x86af410] [error_cb] rb-shell-player.c:3099: ignoring error (no source): Internal GStreamer error: state change failed.
