Applied, but I had to spend quite a bit of time fixing this to work properly.  
You were leaking quite a bit of ram on each channel change, and it would 
crash after 6 or 7 channel changes in a row.

I _really_ don't like this method of detecting stream changes.  Why can't you 
just check for the current audio track not sending data anymore?  That would 
work a hell of a lot better, and would properly deal with audio streams 
disappearing while on the same channel.
