SUMMARY

Dolphin sometimes hangs when right-clicking a .m3u file with no entries, when the automatic preview playback is enabled.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click in the left panel
2. Ensure "Auto-play media files" is checked
3. Create new (empty) text file
4. Change extension to .m3u
5. Right-click the file

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin sometimes hangs and has to be terminated. If you're extra unlucky, it hangs with the menu open, locking the input focus and requiring you to switch VT to kill it.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin does not hang.
