As per the summary, I have had the amarok 1.2.3 tray icon disappear (yet keep its space in the tray) and stop responding a couple of times today. No change from previous runs of amarok when it didn't happen. Amarok runs in the background without a glitch but I can only kill it and nothing more since the tray is the only way to control it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: The icon should keep responding to clicks.
(In reply to comment #0) > Reproducible: Always Stupid error on my part: the problem has happened like 30% of all amarok runs, not always.
please try amarok-1.2.4
Confirmed on 1.2.4. Amarok this time freezed too, on kill -6 I got crash but I wasn't smart enough to save the backtrace. I will save the next.

Can you bring up the playlist, or play/stop/forward/backward using the global shortcut keys? Don't know if this is relevant to anything, but there _is_ another way to control amarok :-)
I admit I'm a noob here, I didn't even know of the shortcuts. :) On the other hand I've never had any more crashes or freezes since my last comment. Maybe it was something in a dependency I have updated, other then that I don't know.
Is still a problem with 1.3.1-r1?
I'm unsure, lately I haven't experienced the problem but it has always been intermittent. I'd say it's solved, unless some new evidence comes up.
Tell me if you find a way to reproduce this on a consistent way. I just seen it one time, and was related to a broken kde installation (as in, I was recompiling it).
