Thanks for the fix. However, this is the approach, we've used originally, and 
it didn't prove very reliable. I think we even went back and forth more than 
once.

So you should really have a look in the history of the mysql collection, to see 
if and how this is different from the way it's been done before (and why it 
isn't done that way anymore).

It's not only that, it could also lead to problems if several users tried to 
use Amarok simultaneously.

I suggest you check, where does this path come from. Why is storageLocation 
empty?
