[Bug 398623] [NEW] Earcandy detects File Manager as a music player and doesn't know what Amarok is, and other glitches

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: earcandy

When I just ran Earcandy, it told me it detected two applications,
Firefox and the file manager. It saw the file manager as an audio
player. Even though Amarok was running (but not playing), it did not
show up; I also couldn't add a rule for it. When I later restarted
Earcandy, Amarok showed up as an unknown application and the File
Manager was still the music player, just like Pavucontrol, the
PulseAudio volume control. Setting Amarok as a music player did not
update the UI; when I restarted the application later, Amarok showed
correctly (but without any icon) and the volume control didn't show up
anymore.

Expected behaviour: It should recognize Amarok as a music player (even
if it's not playing?), it should not think the file manager (I don't
think I had any running, let alone playing sound, but maybe it thought
plasma-desktop was a file manager?) is a music player, Pavucontrol
should not be recognized as a music player, and the UI should update
correctly when I change settings. Also, it would be cool if either the
"list of running applications" would be renamed to the "list of
applications playing audio", or even better, if applications not playing
audio would show up.
