-----------------------------
I looked at this some more - as far as I can tell:

Prior to rhythmbox-0.13.3, the edit/plugins/last.fm menu used to ask for and save the username and password

Post rhythmbox-0.13.3, the edit/plugins/last.fm menu does not ask for the username/password, but clicking on the last.fm icon brings up a button marked "login". I'm guessing that clicking on "login" should pop-up a browser window, but is doesn't.

From the debug log (pasted below), I see:

rb-audioscrobbler-account.c:568: sending user to http://www.last.fm/api/auth/?api_key=0337ff3c59299b6a31d75164041860b6&token=dabafc5eb1919a46240bfba57084ad98
(15:12:33) [0x8cac140]

If I enter the following into a browser:

http://www.last.fm/api/auth/? api_key=0337ff3c59299b6a31d75164041860b6&token=dabafc5eb1919a46240bfba57084ad98

last.fm asks for my username/password and I can logon and rhythmbox is set as an enabled application.

I've tried editing ~/.gconf/apps/rhythmbox/audioscrobbler/%gconf.xml to add my username:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
	<entry name="username" mtime="1343732924" type="string">
		<stringvalue>myusername</stringvalue>
	</entry>
</gconf>

..but I cannot see anywhere to store my password.

Any suggestions would be welcomed.
