Anyway, either because it was primarily intended for use under GNOME and I was using KDE or just 'cos, it had a tendency to flake out on random tracks and just stop playing them or, on occasion, crash.
So when I was wandering around the MusicBrainz site and spotted a link to amaroK - “the audio player for KDE” I decided to give it a try. There were some stumbling blocks to overcome initially, in that I had to add a new repository to Apt and a few things had to be downgraded to allow a few requirements to be installed.
It was well worth it though. The interface is very well done and I especially like the “suggested songs” feature that pops up when you're playing a track. In addition it submits to AudioScrobbler itself rather than Rhythmbox's python add-on. Plus I can spell amaroK correctly nearly every time when it takes me a running start to get Rhythmbox right...
