Rhythmbox segment fault...fixed

I installed Rhythmbox and all the gstreamer codecs. When I run rhythmbox it crashes. This is the terminal output:

[meskarune@Lychee ~]$ rhythmbox

^Z
[1]+  Stopped                 rhythmbox

It would also crash to a segment fault.

I figured out that to fix it the "fm radio" plugin had to be turned off. (just in case anyone ran into this error)
