this report has been filed here:

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/276603

"I was listening to an MP3 (downloaded podcast) in Rhythmbox. The program froze and stopped playing the track. After a short time (not sure exactly, but less than a minute) it crashed (window disappeared) and the crash report window came up. There are some podcasts configured and so the program was likely downloading at the same time (I didn't directly observe this, but my connection is slow so Rhythmbox usually is doing that)."

        * podcast/rb-podcast-manager.c: (podcast_download_thread):
        Close the streams (and unref them) before emitting the error/complete
        status.  Previously there was a race between the download thread and
        the main loop thread that could cause crashes here.  Also, now we can
        report errors that occur when closing the output stream.
        Fixes #554556.
