[SOLVED] VLC plays MP3, rhythmbox doesn't

Hello,

I'm trying to play mp3's in Rhythmbox (which is playing .wav files just fine) but it can't seem to handle them.

I tried opening a couple in VLC, and they worked perfectly.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks!

No luck - now I can see all the songs on it and I can play them, but no audio comes out.

Solved, had accidentally installed pulseaudio, which was muted, unawares.
