Bug Description
Issue
=====
Google Play Music loads only search bar and sidebar and then hangs when desktop notifications are enabled in Labs settings.

Workaround
==========
This issue cannot be fixed in Nuvola Player, because it is caused by an incompatibility between Google Play Music website and WebKitGtk web rendering engine used by Nuvola Player. Only Google Play Music and WebKit developers might be able to fix this issue. As a workaround, you can disable Desktop notifications in Labs settings:
Open Google Play Music in Firefox, Chromium or Chrome. Not in GNOME Web (Epiphany) or Midori.
Address: https:/
Click gear icon at the top right corner, click "Labs" menu item to open Labs settings and turn off Desktop notifications feature. Don't forget to save settings. You can now use Google Play Music in Nuvola Player.
This issue doesn't affect desktop notifications provided by Nuvola Player, only built-in Google Play Music desktop notifications for Chrome or Chromium browsers.
Status
======
Google Play Music integration shows a warning about this issue since version 4.10. The fix is available as a service update package. See https:/
Fix committed to lp:nuvola-player as r819. Will be released in Nuvola Player 2.4.0 and 2.3.3.

Thanks for taking the time to report this issue. Could you check whether the issue is reproducible with all Labs features turned off?
Open Google Play Music in Firefox, Chromium or Chrome. Not in GNOME Web (Epiphany) or Midori.

Click gear icon at the top right corner, click "Labs" menu item to open Labs settings and turn off
all features. Don't forget to save settings. Note: If you have Chromecast enabled, you have to
