Hello all: I have an update on my issue. I have now tested my app on two Droid2 non-global devices and neither device can play streaming audio that is being handled by the MediaPlayer object in my app code. As stated before I know for sure that one of the devices also cannot play streaming audio from multiple different apps as well. This leads me to believe that there may be a problem with this particular model device as far as MediaPlayer is concerned...but I'd rather not make assumptions like that unless others can confirm/deny.
Thanks again for any light anybody can shed on this problem...I'd love to be able to roll out my app soon.
