Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

When a song title contains the '&' character, the title appears blank in the rhythmbox balloon.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Locate/create a song with '&' in its title.
2) Play the song just before it in the playlist.
3) Minimise rhythmbox.
4) Choose the 'Next' option, either with keyboard media keys, or from the rhythmbox right-click menu.

What should happen:
5) Balloon appears displaying the title, artist and album.

What actually happens:
5) Balloon appears displaying only the artist and album, with a blank space where the title should be.

The song from the screenshot is titled "Thorned & Weak".

rhythmbox/intrepid uptodate 0.11.6svn20080807-0ubuntu1
