I'm looking for a simple and reliable way of syncing music playlists between Ubuntu and an Android smartphone. Some time ago I was using Banshee, but then it suddenly stopped working. My understanding is that Banshee still puts *.m3u files to Music/Playlists folder but the smartphone does not see them. I tried to use Rhythmbox instead but it also does not seem to work.

I have a friend who used Ubuntu at work & he used to swear by Amarok. It is a powerful music player for Linux and Unix, MacOS X and Windows with an intuitive interface. It may well help assist you.

Alternatively for full collaboration between Ubuntu & Android devices, checkout Ubuntu For Android.

Thank you, @Simon! But is it able to sync playlists? The following article says that it can only copy the audio files: designbygravity.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/… – Sasha K. Dec 13 '12 at 17:02
Sasha I have never used it myself, I just remembered that a friend used to go on about it, as he was an avid ubuntu user, so I thought I would suggest it...hopefully someone else will be able to help :) – Simon Dec 13 '12 at 17:34
I see. Thank you once again! – Sasha K. Dec 14 '12 at 9:28
