Just for info, this problem has now magically disappeared from my
Transporter! I did take it up with support. Their advice was to
uninstall everything, clean up any remaining traces of SqueezeCenter
and then re-install it all again. In my personal opinion that is really
lame and useless advice, also resulting in losing all my settings and
setup. 

In my professional capacity I'm the head of software development for a
fairly large engineering software company - if one of our support
people offered such advice without first trying to find the cause of
the problem he/she will be fired on the spot! Problems don't just
automagically go away. Yes, uninstalling and reinstalling may make it
disappear, but the problem is still lurking in there somethere, and it
is guaranteed to surface again. Anyways, this is my last reply to
them:

"Hi, 

The problem has disappeared on its own - I didn't have to perform the
steps of uninstalling and re-installing as you requested. This of
course does not mean that the problem is gone. It must still be lurking
in there somewhere and may be triggered again in the future by some
combination of steps I performed. 

One clue that may be investigated by your software developers is that I
was playing mostly internet radio stations during that time and saw a
few "connection timed out" messages after pausing and resuming playing.
After that I played my usual music from FLAC files served by my
SqueezeCenter. However the flashing still continued, and I saw that
"Connection timed out" message a couple of times again after pausing
and resuming playing my music files. Maybe there was some thread
lurking in the background that was still attempting to make connections
to the internet.
