Same issue. I had Banshee minimised to dock, put my hand down beside the laptop to pick up something and the fan was churning hot air at an alarming rate. Killed via system monitor. There seems to be no program combo I use that seems to create any issues (been playing with combos and watching the resources) The only thing I have noticed, is that the amount of processor resources seem to change markedly depending on the bit rate of the file being played (and not in the uniform manner I expected) At 88 kbps - 8% At 145 kbps - 8% At 256 kbps -50% At 353 kbps - 24% I can recreate this on multiple files quite easily. Doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. Don't know if it means anything or not.
