[Bug 57789] Amarok skips some tracks without reason

[Dave Suffling]

Public bug reported:

When advancing from the end of one track, amarok will start to play the
next track, but then go on to play the track which follows. This is
detectable because of crossfading, and it known (or just more frequently
noticed) when using queued tracks.

To aid in duplication, my usual usage pattern calls for the 'random'
metaplaylist set to list 50 tracks. I repopulate the list, pick five or
six tracks to queue, then repeat until my queue reaches a good size.

I should add that the effect occurs only some of the time. I haven't
found any rationale as to why some tracks are skipped (skipped tracks
can be requeued and will play the second time they come up.)
