Version: 2.3.1 (using KDE 4.5.0) OS: Linux The playlist sorting by type does not work. To sort I tried to use the sort-icon at the top of the playlist area. (By the way: There seem to be more bugs associated with this "tool" when you use more than 2 sort criteria... and to me it is unclear when sorting criteria as the head informatione of an album are broken and when not ...) This bug is especially annoying when one has songs recorded in ogg and mp3 versions and when you want to eliminate one type of songs (e.g. all mp3 songs) from the playlist with a minimum of effort. Sorting by type in a playlist was never a problem with amarok 1.4.x. When fixing this bug one should think carefully about whether one should break other criteria as the order of albums or whether you only resort within albums if this is the head sort criterion. I personally would prefer breaking any previous order as the user can set up the order of sort criteria according to his wishes. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Add "type" to the layout of your playlist. Choose songs with different file types from the local resources and add them to the playlist. Then try to sort by "type". Actual Results: No changes in the playlist. Expected Results: New order (alphanumeric order) according to the file type. OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.34-12-default Compiler: gcc
Confirmed with current git, sorting by type doesn't work.
This is an automated message from the triager: Amarok 2.4.1 has been released on May 8 already. Could you please upgrade and test if you can still reproduce this bug? Without feedback within a month we will close this bug as resolved. Thank you for your understanding.

I regularly check whether this bug is resolved or not. Unfortunately, I must say that nothing changed over a long period of time. I now tested for version 2.4.1 of amarok and KDE 4.6.3 again. Sorting by type still does not work.
Thank you for the feedback.
Still valid in current git.
