The crash only happens when you try to play an mp3 without the right gstreamer plugin installed. So the workaround is just to install the right plugin (hard to tell which one this is as I installed a load more all at once). It is now working fine, but I think that it should either display an error message when you try to play an unplayable file, or else not show the file in the first place.
