Well, the relevant lines in the error log seem to be these:

DBusError: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dbus/service.py", line 702, in _message_cb
    retval = candidate_method(self, *args, **keywords)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/carquinyol/datastore.py", line 355, in get_properties
    metadata = self._metadata_store.retrieve(uid)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/carquinyol/metadatastore.py", line 41, in retrieve
    return metadatareader.retrieve(metadata_path, properties)
IOError: Couldn't open metadata directory /home/olpc/.sugar/default/datastore//m//media/Philips/Buenos Muchachos/Se Pule La Colmena/2-06 Corazonoro.mp3/metadata

So apparently Etoys tries to access the metadata for the MP3 but the datastore fails to find it. Etoys does not handle that case, it relies on get_properties() succeeding. Is that wrong?
