Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: amarok

I have an mt-daapd server running on another box on the network. iTunes
connects to it with no problems via zeroconf, so I know the DAAP server
side of things is not at fault.

Amarok auto-detected the mt-daapd server via zeroconf, which impressed
me. However, it won't play anything from it. When I drag a track into
the playlist and then double-click it, I get a pop-up error message:

Error Loading Media
No suitable input plugin. This often means that the url's protocol is not supported. Network failures are other possible causes.
http://localhost:34809/daap.mp3

Based on comments around similar bugs (e.g. #83074 about last.fm), I have also
(a) checked that localhost resolves correctly to 127.0.0.1 (via ping),
(b) checked that lo interface is up via ifconfig, and 
(c) checked that libxine-extracodecs is installed for MP3 support

** Affects: amarok (Ubuntu)
