Hm, so in essence, it does work? Since the Amarok code wasn't changed
between yesterday and your previous runs, I don't seen why this would
be an Amarok problem. Are you sure it was not already running
minimized and you just didn't see the icon in the Panel?

Unless you can tell how to reproduce this reliably, I don't see how we
could help in any way, unfortunately.

Hope you still enjoy using Amarok :)

Regards, Myriam
