Bug Description

Binary package hint: listen

Application: Listen
Version:0.5-0Ubuntu3

When connected to the internet via a gateway which firewalling functionality if the streaming ports are disallowed for a particular audio stream Listen locks up hard and has to be forceably quit.
Example;

You try and stream "http://radio.internode.on.net:8010/listen.pls" but your internet gateway (i.e Router or another PC running Internet Connection Sharing) dose not allow traffic out on that port then instead of reporting that it connect connect to the stream Listen simply freezes.
A stacktrace gives you nothing (see below);
//
The application 'Music Player Listen' lost its connection to the display :1.0;
most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
the application.
[{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 1}], 0, NULL) = 7208
--- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 0 (0) ---
\\

If the exception is added into the firewall, Listen is able to stream fine.
