And of course we can't know what's happening without more
information. Namely: do you have a special completion for `play'? I
guess not. But I guess you have a match spec. So we need either your
style settings (`zstyle -L') or a xtrace output, e.g. try typing C-x?
after `ls jean'. This will produce a file with the xtrace in the
$TMPDIR (normally /tmp).
