Isn't this expected behaviour?

Next to the Play button is the Shuffle button that is doing "shuffle"..

I think it is expected, in case Play would do shuffle, what would button Shuffle do? Assigning Rusty to decide, but I do not see this as bug. Context menu also contains "Play normally" in Shuffle mode, Play button is exactly this command.

I think that if we keep the 'Play' and 'Play shuffled' buttons next to one another, then their actions are relatively clear--even when 'Shuffle' is enabled.

A minor tweak would be to change the tooltips for such buttons:

Play (in order)
Play (shuffled)

The only new string required for this would be 'in order'.

Please triage.

@rusty I think we do not need new strings, we already use "Play normally" and "Play shuffled" in context menus for these actions, I think we should use the same for tooltips here?

Tooltips updated in build 2830, used the same strings as for context menu - Play shuffled and Play normally.
