[mythtv-users] mythMusic only playing one file

I'm a new user, and I'm trying to get MythMusic set up correctly. I 
installed all of the prerequisites (including the optional GL ones), 
configured MythMusic, and was able to scan and browse my music 
collection. MythMusic successfully detects the mp3s, allows me to add 
them to a playlist, and lets me browse the playlist (displaying the 
ID3 tags correctly). It's when I go to play music that everything 
breaks down.

I can only play one mp3! It's the same one each time, and it plays 
perfectly. I can choose another mp3 before or after it, but anything 
except this one track will never play. Also, this song is the only 
one where the kbps, sample rate, and channel info appears in the info 
box.

Things I've tried (without success):
-disabling visualizations by setting the setting to none. Still no dice.
-playing the other files manually with mplayer. They play correctly, 
and appear to be uncorrupted.
-restarting everything.
-cursing at the computer

Throughout all of this, mythfrontend and mythbackend produce no error 
messages, no segfaults, nothing.

Any ideas as to what might be causing this?  I can provide a trace if 
someone can tell me where to set a breakpoint.

Thanks.

Sincerely,
Mike DeRosa

  Oh, and hats off to Isaac and the rest of the dev team for what is 
one of the coolest open-source apps I've seen in a LONG while.
