That would work once, but then I would need a playlist to play songs with
play count 2, and then play count 3... And that wouldn't work on songs that
I had already listened to a dozen times manually.

True enough.  And I doubt some of these other suggestions will work either if the goal is to have a playlist that let's you play each song exactly once, then remove it.  Creating a smart playlist matching the 'play count is at least 1' criteria doesn't guarantee that each song is played once before the list starts repeating, and neither does limiting the songs based on least played.  Simply shuffling through the music works to a degree - it shouldn't play a song twice before all other songs have been played once - but I don't think that past songs are remembered when you restart Banshee.  So, ya know, just don't turn your computer off until you've listened to all of your music. :-p

If you don't have 'write ratings and playcounts to files' turned on, you could clear your music library and re-import everything.  If you don't mind losing all of your ratings, playlists, and anything else that makes your music library personalized, this command should do the trick:  rm ~/.config/banshee-1/banshee.db
