[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#769582: amarok gets silent on manual song changes

[Patrick Matthäi]

Package: amarok
Version: 2.8.0-2.1+b1
Severity: grave

Hello,

first: I were not realy sure if severity grave is realy correct, since
most amarok functions are working. But after some hours I have decided
that this is a grave error, since it is not usable as media player anymore.

Problem description:
- If I start amarok and then start a song on the right side (eg
doubleclick) it starts playing. If I manualy change the song again on
the right side audio output is not working anymore until I restart amarok
- if I start  amarok and only using the back- and forward button to
change songs, everything is working. but if I start again a song
manualy, no audio output
- automatic song changes also work fine

So amarok is here not able to produce any audio output, after I have
changed (not initialy started) a song in my playlist.

I have started amarok with "--nofork --debug" and attached the full log.
It contains the following:
- starting of amarok with --nofork and --debug
- starting to play a song
- manualy switching the song again (no audio output anymore). _BEFORE_ I
switched the song, I have marked the location with ">>> now changing
manual" at line 955

Hope this will help you to identify the issue.
You can also contact me on IRC (the-me).
