Rhythmbox does not open with firejail

I've installed firejail and run firecfg which means most/all my apps now find /usr/local/bin entries that run the app through firejail.
This is mostly working great and not causing any problems.
But I have Rhythmbox installed and that seems not to open anymore.

When I try to run Rhythmbox now, I see a firejail process and a corresponding rhythmbox process both get created, and the rhythmbox process uses ~25% cpu, so it's doing something. But the GUI does not appear.

If I run /usr/local/bin/rhythmbox I see firejail produce this, and I get the behaviour I described:
Quote:

(rhythmbox:5): dbind-WARNING **: 12:36:48.153: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/1000/at-spi/bus_0: No such file or directory
Are these relevant?

If I run /usr/bin/rhythmbox (i.e. without firejail) then it runs as normal with the GUI and it works.

Can you help me understand what I am doing wrong, or what I can look at to get this working through firejail? Thanks
