cover.jpg is not read as album cover art

Component: Plugin: Cover Art Fetching OS: Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) Problem description: Cover.jpg etc. are supposed to be used as album cover art since version 1.2.0. But on my installation, for albums which banshee can not find proper cover arts from the internet, although there is cover.jpg file inside the albums folder, it is not used/displayed. Step to produce: 1. Find a music album which very possibly does not have cover arts available on internet, for example a indie band album or a Chinese music album. 2. Download a cover picture and store it as cover.jpg in that album's folder 3. Import the folder into banshee 4. Play the music, or go to menu: Tools > Cover Art > Download Cover Art.
