Bug Description

There seems to be some problem with Podbird which results in it being unable to start playing a new podcast after the previous one fails.

For example, if I'm streaming a podcast, and I go out of network coverage, the playback will be interrupted and I cannot start a new podcast even if that one is downloaded.

Sometimes this situation is not fixed by closing podbird and re-opening it, but it /IS/ fixed by opening the Music app, playing a song and then stopping it.... after that podbird can play again.

I've also encountered a situation where a stream has failed, I decide to play a downloaded podcast, but trying to play any other podcast restarts the stream, even though the UI says it's playing the downloaded podcast....

Could it be that Media hub needs an explicit "stop" signal to be sent before starting a new action, incase the previous action was not ended correctly?
