Hi there,
I am having some strange observation here. Not sure when it actually started as I normally quit Amarok when not using it. However, when I choose "Stop" instead, Amarok starts to fade out the music that it it currently playing. However after a few seconds (when it normally should stop), it starts to play it again. I can repeat this and it just stops when quitting the application.
I didn't find any bugs that sounds like this one. So I am asking here for help. Running KDE on Fedora 27 (64 bit). My guts feeling is that this might be something related to dbus and its restarted by some event or a signal is not communicated correctly. Anyone observing this as well or can give advisory how to debug this further?
Best regards, Florian

I'm not seeing anything like that, I'm also on F27 x64. I tried both with pause and stop, music fades out and doesn't restart (I waited for a couple of minutes).
The quickest test you can do is to see if you experience the same problem with default settings: create a test user, login and run amarok under that user.

As with Mattia, I couldn't reproduce this on F27. Using the 'Amarok' drop-down menu at the top-left, or the icon, if I paused/stop amarok then it remained stopped/paused.
The only thing I did notice was that the spacebar will restart the stopped/paused song. In my case, whilst waiting to see if the song automatically restarted, the screen blanked (it was supposed to). I pressed the space bar to awake the screen, and it started amarok up again as well.

Space bar will stop play as well as start play.

You can try disabling the "fadeout on pause/stop" features, it's been known to be quirky on some circumstances (due mostly to buggy audio drivers).
