The problem is the same that has already been reported [1] for mono, as
well as the already reported bug #887078. vlc is easier to debug than
amarok. Reverting the upstream commit f81ddabffd fixes the issue.

The issue is currently listed as a release blocker for the version 2.27
[2], so it will be either fixed or reverted for the final release.
