Mint 14 kde audacious playlist distorted
Posted: Wed May 08, 2013 6:06 pm
Hi,
when using audacious in gtk mode things get strange. Everything works fine until I close audacious and start it again (e.g. after a shutdown): the old playlist is loaded, but the display goes kind of haywire. Some songs appear twice in the onscreen list and when I mouse over the doubles they disappear, there seems to be a difference between what is displayed on screen and what actually is in the playlist. As a result, I cannot chose a specific song by double clicking on it because I always get another one. This only happens after audacious restored the previous playlist it used when it was shut down, starting with a new list works fine (until closed and re-opened, that is). This also only happens when using gtk-mode, using old winamp skins works well, but gtk.mode is much more comfortable due to tabbed playlist and it looks a lot better, but sadly is unusable for me because of this problem.
I post this under kde because it only seems to happen with Mint 14 kde, I experienced this with three different machines using kde while another one set up with mate works well. Any idea what this is and how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
