Amarok is not working as it should with me. I am using a daily build of 13.04 (from 06.02) and 32 bit. Whenever I click on a music file it acts as if it has been queued and will not play until it is double-clicked on the playlist. Sometimes Amarok whirls about in the bottom panel and then just disappears too ( the file has been added to the playlist though). Any suggestions as to how to correct this (am I using a wrong setting? - they are all set to default) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply and suggestions, dmeyer.
No, I had not tried either of those but have done so now.
I purged amarok and its utilities and common files - no effect at all when re-installed after a reboot.
I found as many config and shared files as I could in the hidden files and deleted the lot - no effect at all when amarok re-installed after a reboot.
Hehe.

dmeyer, the install is the default one with the daily build iso (32 bit).
I think it did the same thing with a daily build from 03.02 which was why I thought I would try another one.
I have noticed that its About says '' Version 2.7.0 Using KDE 4.10.00'' but I have not updated the KDE SC yet.
claydoh, sorry I do not know how to do the bug reporting thing.
dmeyer, how do I run it from konsole?

Have installed vlc but there is not an option in the settings to use it for the backend of phonon - just the default gstreamer setting.

ok, tried the phonon-vlc-backend and then set it as the preferred option for the backend but still the problem persists. So then I tried a 64 bit install and still the same issue. Have noticed too that in the first instance Amarok usually asks for a location (to buy music) and also plays the theme tune since that is first in the default playlist. It is doing neither of these.

Did you logout/login after the backend change?
To be honest, the original error didn't even really point at the backend. I think at this stage you should file a bug report. You are using a development version so expect to see bugs. There isn't much you can do except wait for an update or move to something supported like 12.10, 12.04 or even 11.10
