Socket error when playing to Icecast

[IC Raibow]

Binary package hint: mpd

I used mpd as a Internet Radio, streaming my music throught Icecast,
with the "shout" type audio output.
It works almost perfectly, because there's a small problem with the
"Play" functionnality : if I stop the music in mpd, wait few minutes and
then restart it, I got this in my mpd/error.log file :

    Jan 10 16:46 : Lost shout connection to localhost:8088 : Socket error
    Jan 10 16:46 : problems opening audio device while playing "..."
    Jan 10 16:46 : problems opening audio device while playing "..."

(localhost:8088 is the network address on which Icecast is listening, as
specified in my mpd.conf file)

... and I need to press play several times before mpd starts to play
sound. Sometimes, I need to press play about ten times!

Thanks for reporting. Could you try with version 0.14.2 from jaunty? If that version fails, could you try the version available in my ppa? Thanks.

Looks like it's really fixed in 9.04. Hurray!
