If you change player in the web interface and then hit the back button in your browser more than once the player just chosen is still selected but the left-hand pane will still reflect the earlier player and will send the chosen album, playlist, favorite, etc. to the wrong player.

An example would be navigating as follows, with Player 1 selected as default:
Web Interface -> New Music -> First album in list
Change player from Player 1 to Player 2
Press Back twice to navigate back to New Music selection
Click play on second album and it will play on Player 1 (whilst Player 2 is shown in the right-hand pane)

another variation on this theme is the player selector don't stay on the chosen player, but it does not always update this status imidietly and then you are sending music to the wrong player.

for some reason unknown to me during some sessions I've seen sbs having a preference for choosing a particular player.
