Description torfjunk 2011-10-17 17:35:34 UTC
Version:           2.4.3 (using KDE 4.7.1) 
OS:                Linux

When connected to a DAAP share, Amarok does not handle track progression correctly.  Amarok will seem to pause after each track is played, but the play button shows that it is playing.  Hitting the "pause" button will start the next track.  This behavior is apparent on Kubuntu "Oneric" and began when I upgraded to "Oneric".  Track progression on local media works correctly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Bring in a album or a list of tracks from a DAAP share into the playlist.  Play the first song.  At the end of the song, Amarok won't progress to the next song without hitting the pause button.

Actual Results:  
When the player reaches the end of the first file, and it "pauses", I can hit "pause" to resume playing at the beginning of the next track.  Once that track is done, Amarok "pauses" again...

Expected Results:  
Amarok should have and used to in previous manifestations, progress tracks one at a time though the playlist without having to hit the "pause" button.

OS: Linux (i686) release 3.0.0-12-generic-pae
Compiler: gcc

Confirmed in Opensuse 12.1 as well, seems to be a problem with GStreamer backend in pulseaudio. If you switch to VLC for the backend, it progresses normally to the next track in a DAAP share, though VLC has its own issues as a backend.

Not an Amarok bug, reassigning to the phonon-backend-gstreamer product. Which exact version of the backend is this about?
