The problem seems to happen whenever accessibility helpers are activated.
Is it your case by any chance ?

When I begin to type a search string, already at the first character, Rythmbox starts to search for the specific character and can lock the entire program for a good 10-20 seconds or so. When the search is done, I can type in the rest of the characters in the search string. The procedure repeats itself for the rest of the characters, but with decreasing search time. The first character is the worst.
