rhythmbox

Not so trivial to explain but I'll try.

Launch Rhythmbox
Insert a CD in the CD-ROM
The CD is not automatically identified (it's of a not very famous Russian band)
I'm manually setting track names and...
Magic, black magic! If I change the keyboard layout (RU <-> EN) during editing then Rhythmbox kicks me out of the editing. So if a track name contains both Russian and English words I'm compelled to write one part, press Enter (so that the changes are not lost), change layout, click on the track name, write another part in the opposite layout. In some tricky names I have to do this several times.

By the way, I use Alt+Shift to change layout. Any ideas?
