Bug#532349: rhythmbox: "Install Multimedia Plugins" dialog keeps popping up

Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.12.0-2
Severity: normal

I'm starting Rhythmbox in my session and now every time I log in, I get
an annoying pop up about "Install Multimedia Plugins". It asks me if it
should search for plugins which can handle application/x-par2... It
doesn't find anything if I allow it and then I need to close it.

*Every single login!*

This is really very annoying. I have no idea how to silence it...

Any hints are welcome! (And please fix this annoying behaviour...)

This is the process showing the popup:

manuel    8715     1  0 19:32 ?        00:00:01 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/gstreamer-codec-install gstreamer|0.10|rhythmbox-metadata|application/x-par2 decoder|decoder-application/x-par2

The 'rhythmbox-metadata' made me think the problem is with Rhythmbox. I
hope that's correct, otherwise I've sent this report to the wrong
package.

Thanks for looking.
