Bug Description
Once again, I accidentally opened Rhythmbox and it started importing a lot of something—I don't know what.
Since I prefer to have control over what parts of my computer Rhythmbox uses, I opened 'Rhythmbox Preferences' ▸ 'Music' with the intention of dissuading it from rampaging through whatever location it has defaulted to. Frustratingly, all Rhythmbox chooses to reveal to me about its automated behavior is:
Music files are placed in: Multiple locations set
When I click 'Browse' and open a location of my preference (~/sandbox), nothing changes. Rhythmbox still displays:
Music files are placed in: Multiple locations set
Even as I write this its progress bar is bouncing away, doing... something. I have no idea what it's doing.
