Bug#419154: rhythmbox: application does not appear to have a
preference to select soundcard

Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.9.6-8
Severity: normal
The application does not have it's own preference for which sound device to
use. When multiple sound devices are present on a system, it's often the
case that they are used for different purposes, so always relying on the
system default device makes the application unusable in certian enviroments,
in particular, when coexisting with another application with the same lack
of functionality.
Note: Even though this is for an enhancement I marked this normal instead
of wishlist because I believe this makes the package practically unusable
under a certian limited set of conditions as specified above.
