Comment 3 for bug 785304

Sorry, should have looked for a log. I'd rather not attach the whole thing as it contains many contact email addresses from using the Telepathy extension. However, this is the only relevant entry and it appears each time the playback fails:

[Warn 11:30:24.041] Absolute - Absolute Radio (AAC+) (on Absolute Radio (AAC+)) <00:00:00> [<unknown>] - System.Net.WebException: The request timed out (in `System')
  at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse (IAsyncResult asyncResult) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
  at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
  at Banshee.Playlists.Formats.PlaylistParser.Parse (Hyena.SafeUri uri) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
  at Banshee.Streaming.RadioTrackInfo.LoadStreamUri (System.String uri) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

I have verified that the stream plays in e.g. VLC correctly first time every time.

My internet connection pretty high-speed, both at work (unknown) and at home (40Mbps fibre). Banshee behaves the same on both, and at other times when I've been on wifi hotspots.
