GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 131061
audible gap between end of track and beginning of next.

Rhythmbox apparently needs a small amount of time to go from the end of one track to the beginning other. Thus, playing two songs consequtively, where one song is supposed to flow into the other wihtout noticing, produces an audible gap. (hope this is understandable) Perhaps this is an issue where Rhythmbox needs to update the GUI before it starts playing the next track. (only guessing here, as I'm not a developer) threading?

According to Benjamin Otte, from Gstreamer-fame, it's a Gstreamer thing. Known to the developers: "optimize rhythmbox, use 2 pipelines, make the second pipeline be ready to start playing. On EOS, you stop the first pipeline and immediately after start the second. it's tricky anyway"
