After looking into this a bit, it seems to depend on which column in the
list view is selected. If the first column (the one with the speaker
icon at the top) is selected, pressing Enter or Space does nothing. If
any other column is selected, pressing Enter or Space starts the song!

The workaround for now is to press the Right-arrow key before hitting
Enter, to make sure you're in a different column...
