rhythmbox won't open radio
Rhythmbox (aka Music Player) won't open radio stations (Groove Salad,
Bluemars, or other stations from the internet). It tells me "couldn't
start playback (null)". Once in a blue moon, several minutes later,
it'll connect and start playing a station, without acknowledging that
it's connected, thereby not allowing me any control (to make it stop the
one station, I'll have to quit the program). Often it will freeze,
alleging that I've paused a station, at which point I'll have to force
it to quit.
It will play ogg or mp3 files on my system. However, it won't stop,
it'll only pause. If, after I've played an ogg or mp3, I try to play an
internet radio station, it'll reopen the last ogg or mp3 I played.
Once that's done, it'll just freeze.
Is anyone else having issues like this with Rhythmbox?
It's version 0.9.5-2, on Etch. I use Gnome.

PS, I shoulda stuck with Sarge. Curiousity killed this cat, and, alas,
satisfaction has not yet brought me back.
