The delay is caused by a bug correction in Squeezebox Touch built-in
Squeezebox Server version (7.5 embedded) which has been merged into 7.6
but isn't included in 7.5.x. The change was introduced in svn revision
29324 and the intention is to avoid doing heavy operations at track
change, probably because it disturbs synchronization and similar stuff.
Due to this tracks aren't added until 15 seconds after the track
change.
The solution is probably to force it to happen immediately at track
change if it moves to the last track in the playlist. At the moment, by
looking at the code, I suspect it will step to the beginning of the
playlist if you have reached the end before 15 seconds has passed.
Just to make sure this is the problem, it would help if you could:
1. Start playing a random mix.
2. Immediately step to the end of playlist and step once more to move
to the first track in the list.
3. Wait for 20 seconds and see if it adds one more track.
