Dear Maintainer,

I am not sure, if it was one of my daily upgrades which led to this.
The last time it worked was on July the 31th. As I do not scrobble on
a daily base I discovered this bug only last week, when I wanted to
scrobble my last played songs. I am using a Cowon X7 player in MTP
mode to scrobble from, if this is important for you to know.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Connect your player to your computer
2. Start qtscrob
3. Wait that something happens
4. Click on the x of the window to close it

You will see in the title bar, that qtscrob is not responding. If
you click on x again, KDE's dialog with (roughly translated)
"qtscrob is not responding" will appear ... :(

If I start qtscrob from command line, I can see that it resets the
USB bus, then tries it again and after connecting to it, I can see
the number of songs with playcount out of X songs it found on my
player. I do not see any error message nor warning at this point ...
:(

Sorry for the inconvenience and have a nice day
Thomas.
