Version:           2.3.0 (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

When loading an new playlist when nothing is currently playing and "Track progression" is set to "Random tracks", Amarok always starts playing the first song in the playlist.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Make sure no track is currently playing
2) Set "Track progression" to "Random tracks"
3) Load a new playlist

Actual Results:  
Amarok always starts playing the first track in the new playlist.

Expected Results:  
Amarok should pick the first track to play at random.

Using Kubuntu 10.04

Can not reproduce it with 2.3-git.
Comment 2 Myriam Schweingruber 2010-07-09 11:03:51 UTC
Anton, thank you for the feedback, I mark this as fixed, feel free to reopen the report if you can reproduce this with the upcoming Amarok 2.3.2 or a current 2.3.1-git version
Comment 3 Job Noorman 2010-07-11 12:58:37 UTC
I just built Amarok from git and I still experience the exact same issue so I will reopen this report.

Please let me know if I can give any additional info that will help you pinpoint the issue.

I'm sorry, I've found a way to reproduce bug. I tried to set playlist by drag-n-drop from the collection (play not starts, so everything is ok). Bug is reproducible if user use context-menu on the playlist object in the collection.

Thanks Anton, your patch fixes the problem.

I think the bugreport should not be closed until the bug is fixed in mainline. This patch is not yet in master.
Comment 8 Job Noorman 2010-07-12 10:44:21 UTC
Woops sorry about that. Reopened it.
