This is probably due to the fact that id = plugin.audio.tuneinradio while it is stored in Q:\plugins\music\tunein radio\ (notice the space).
A workaround / fix is probably to rename the plugin from "tunein radio" to "TuneInRadio".

Aside from the space in the folder, I think there is a problem converting the id into plugin:// path - it appears it tries plugin://audio where in fact it should probably be plugin://music. It works in direct launch as it has a "cwd" value (plugin://music/TuneIn Radio) where in shortcut launch "cwd" is blank and has to determine it from id (plugin.audio.tuneinradio).

A solution would be to change the locations logic in xbmcaddon.py to switch from "audio" to "music" - will try that later and provide a patch.

I believe this will do it (see attachments).
Fixes the "audio" vs "music" location, doesn't do anything for the "tuneinradio" vs "TuneIn Radio" problem. I see this as a naming convention problem, where maybe the plugin should be named with dots where spaces are (e.g. plugin.audio.tunein.radio - aren't some mainline addons named like that?) and then we could handle and convert from "tunein.radio" to "TuneIn Radio".
