[Bug 71208] Rhythmbox hang during launch

[patrick_g]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

There is something horribly broken in Rhythmbox (version 0.9.6 in edgy).
My computer is a laptop (Pentium M Dothan 1.86 GHz; 1 GB RAM; 80 GB 5400 rpm Hard drive)

When i try to launch Rhythmbox the first time it hang. 
No response at all and it keep a lot of CPU power and memory (see screenshot : 52 MB of memory and 92% for the CPU).

When i try to close the Rhythmbox window there is no response so i kill
the software (right clic on the taskbar and "close"). There is a pop up
window saying (in french) "the window 'music player' did not respond"
and i clic on the "force quit" button (see screenshot)

Immediately afterwards i re-launch Rhythmbox and everything is ok ! (see screenshot : 31.8 MB and 0% CPU).
