The MPRIS controls in taskbar tooltips are not appearing in Plasma 5.7. This worked fine in the beta, and downgrading plasma-desktop to 5.6.95 fixes it, so it's a recent regression. The media control applet works fine. Reproducible: Always
After some more testing, this seems to affect only Amarok. I've bisected it to commit 0d6442d in plasma-desktop
Please attach the following information: 1) The name and location of Amarok's .desktop file on your system 2) xprop output for the Amarok window

Kai, thoughts? Going by the above the heuristic should produce a usable launcher URL from window metadata.
Probably Amarok's desktop file not matching what it announces on MPRIS. Can you check the DesktopEntry Amarok announces in its MPRIS interface? The commit that changed it is [1] but since the new approach is how it should have been from the beginning, this is a bug in Amarok fwiw.

I just installed Amarok, here's the DesktopEntry: kde4-amarok Reassigning to Amarok.
https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/128418/ Since there is not much activity in Amarok-land nowadays, would be great if someone could review and commit it.
And the same fix for juk https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/128419/

Git commit 9449ec56d1fd77a0bfa1f7134a2bf4f91ffd14d3 by Matěj Laitl, on behalf of Antonio Rojas. Committed on 20/08/2016 at 11:10. Pushed by laitl into branch 'master'. Fix MPRIS2 DesktopEntry value According to the MPRIS2 spec, the DesktopEntry value should be "the basename of the .desktop file" [1], not the desktop-file-id. So for amarok it should be "amarok" and not "kde4-amarok", regardless of where the desktop file is installed. This fixes displaying MPRIS controls in the Amarok taskbar tooltip in Plasma 5.7 [1] https://specifications.freedesktop.org/mpris-spec/latest/Media_Player.html#Property:DesktopEntry Testing done by Antonio: Player controls are displayed again in the Amarok taskbar tooltip in Plasma 5.7.
