[Bug 1716967] [NEW] Amarok causes gnome-shell to crash

[monochromec]

Public bug reported:

The subject says it all: when quitting Amarok, the surrounding gnome-
shell is restarted.

Apparently, something sends a SIGABRT to the shell:

Amarok seems to end normally as --debug tells me but invoking it from the command line produces the same effect as from within the shell: it restarts.

More than happy to send more info as required.
