Yeah, people, the music bug should be fixed first!
On the Identify bug, I've found that if I cancel the identify (double-clicking is how I do it) and wait a couple of seconds, the item gets identified. I've also had this problem with lockpicking, but if I move a bit once the lockpicking is underway, the lockpick attempt goes through.
Gotta try this trick. I'll tell you if it work or not.
