Nice stopgap, but I find the Pi a leetle slow for most use. However, I
have a Pi3 running the company wiki (MoinMoin) and it works an absolute
treat. Plus I have an old Canon MFC attached to it, so I can scan over
the network. And it runs my internal DNS zones. They are *great* little
machines, and the fact that Raspbian is available makes them feel very
like Ubuntu when working on them.

Well - not really solved, just bypassed. Sometime when you feel strong,
try uninstalling and re-installing them...

Rhythmbox does Internet Radio too.
