Thanks for the ADD tip. In the meantime, I found the problem and have a workaround. Apparently, its a strange network problem. I noticed that the SB traffic has a lot of retransmits so I tried to lower the MTU on the server's side and the problem disappears when MTU<650. With 650<MTU<800, I get a varying percent of packet-loss, and with MTU>800 it loses so many packets it fails to finish initializing. Strangely, I don't have that problem between other hosts on my network so it may be a connector problem on the SB side, creating noise that messes long packets. (Already changed the cable). For now I'll just use MTU=600 and be able to listen to some music (delivered in the form of somewhat short TCP packets). :)
