Description

Playing with audacious from repo (c268ba081ed8399b82eeaff54fb3d301cceb4849).

My locale is KOI8-R.
I use Winamp interface with default skin.

When I play file with Russian name via command line:

audacious ./Ночь.mp3

everithing is fine. File is added to the list and can be played.

When I try add that file via file chooser, I get following errors:

Cannot convert filename to system locale: /home/andrew/work.c/audacious/INSTALL_ROOT/bin/Ночь.mp3
Cannot convert filename to system locale: /home/andrew/work.c/audacious/INSTALL_ROOT/bin/Ночь.mp3
Invalid UTF-8: Ночь

and file is actually not added and cannot be played.

My previous version of audacious was 2.5.0 and it worked correctly.

This is a bug in GtkFileChooser, which fails to encode filenames in UTF-8 before converting them to URIs. See http://redmine.audacious-media-player.org/boards/1/topics/542 for further discussion.
