As soon as I try to start up rhythmbox it segfaults. The full output I see when I try to run it from the console is below:

demonbane at thief:~$ rhythmbox
process 9680: type array 97 not a basic type
process 9680: type array 97 not a basic type
process 9680: type invalid 0 not a basic type
process 9680: type invalid 0 not a basic type
process 9680: type struct 114 not a basic type
Segmentation fault

I have used rhythmbox successfully on this computer before, though I haven't had it installed in a few months.
