I cannot confirm the "niceness" of R-box. I view it as rather 
inaccessible. The focus is not tracked reliably, the sources list isn't 
read properly, and in the table containing the local library I cannot 
scroll at al, although it is empty. Orca gets stuck, and I have to move 
tab/shift+tab dozens of times to convince Orca to do a move.
I don't think it makes much sense to file a particular bug report, 
because I think the accessibility of R-box should be completely rebuild.
And finally: Why do I have to start R-box twice? Starting the firs time 
results in an empty window, that gets hidden when moving the focus. A 
second start shows the interface.
Despite a lot of critizism I got, I insist: There's no real accessible 
audio player in Gnome, nothing compared to Winamp, for example.
