Dropouts when playing uncompressed.

(Sean thinks that this is a buffer pointer calculaton problme in the firmware.) If using apple lossless, wav, or AIFF files, my wired squeezebox hiccups (about .5 second loss of sound) a few seconds after selecting and playing a new song. It seems to be some kind of buffering problem. If I am playing whole album, it doesn't do this at the beginning of each song. just to be clear: i am not talking about a pause between songs, i mean that a song starts to play for 2 seconds or so...followup by a short break in the music...followed by the rest of the song playing as it should. This doesn't seem to happen for more compressed (ie, smaller) files.
Sean, can you take a look at this for 5.2?
This should be much better with the SlimServer 6.0 software.
