Description Harald Hoyer 2009-06-19 07:33:41 UTC
$ rpm -q amarok
amarok-2.1-1.fc11.x86_64

Though it's not the first I've heard this happening, to date, I have unfortunately been unable to reproduce this.

Does this behavior continue if you switch to using the gstreamer phonon backend (or to xine, depending on which you're currently using)?

yum install phonon-backend-gstreamer
kcmshell4 phonon
(backend tab, to set gstreamer to highest priority)

Possibly related upstream reports,

Harald, try and clear your playlist, close and reopen amarok. I had the same problem and AFAIR it fixed it.

I've seen this issue back in 2.0.x days. It was with flac files. I haven't played stuff through amarok on that machine in a while. It's a VNC machine, so not much it'd be able to do.

Never worked when I had this issue.

Experiencing this problem too.  Using mp3 files.

Comment 6 Thomas Janssen 2009-07-10 13:01:23 UTC
I think i recall how i "fixed" it. I removed .kde/share/apps/amarok/* and started then amarok. I had to scan my music again and it was working as expected after.

Thomas, I tried your suggestion and it did not fix it.

Comment 8 Steven M. Parrish 2009-07-22 12:55:55 UTC
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue.

This is an issue that needs to be addressed by the upstream developers. Please report this at http://bugs.kde.org and then add the upstream report information to this report.  We will monitor the upstream report for a resolution to this issue, and will review any bug fixes that become available for consideration in future updates.

Setting status to NEEDINFO, and awaiting upstream bug report URL for tracking.

Thanks in advance.
