Rhythmbox not recognised by the sound applet [SOLVED]

Post by zerocc »

The sound applet gives no choice to launch Rhythmbox - just VLC, which I have installed. Additionally, the multi-media keys for play/pause, halt, next track and previous track are inactive. The OSD is merely the NO ENTRY symbol signifying that there is no media player for them to act upon.

Okay. A complete reinstallation of Rhythmbox and a restart of Cinnamon seemed to do the trick. Carry on - nothing to see here...

I had the same problem but reinstalling didn't work. After few hours I found the problem: you need to have MPRIS D-Bus plugin enabled. That's it. :)
