I seem to have a problem or rather a lack of some basic comprehension as
to how my Squeezebox et.al. should be configured/set up.  I have muddled
through and figured out how to get everything to work (Squeezebox plays
my music library on my stereo and I can switch it to Squeeze Network
and listen to radio streaming like the BBC World Service feed, as I am
doing now and I can access the music library on my PC via Softsqueeze)
. . . but only if I am careful.  

A problem arises though if  the last thing that I had listened to/used
on the Squeezebox was SlimServer.  In this scenario, I turn off the
Squeezebox - and at some point also turn 'off' my PC (sleep or
hibernate or whatever).  Later in the day, I turn Squeezebox on to
listen to the radio via Squeeze Network without turning on my PC.  
Squeezebox attempts to connect but in that the last thing I had been
using was the aforementioned SlimServer, Squeezebox attempts to connect
to it but cannot and it proceeds into set-up and eventually resets (in
Dutch I might add) itself.  I know how to prevent this from happening,
just by making sure the last thing that I tuned in on Squeezebox was
Squeeze Network or to always have my PC turned on, but this can't
possibly be the correct set up, can it?  

I suspect the problem is related to the fact that 2 players are
recognized.  One (127.0.0.1 . . .) when Squeezebox is off and another
(192.268.2.2) when Squeezebox is on.   Is it just a matter of asking
SlimServer to "forget" about the 127... player (presumably my PC?) ?  I
am leery of asking it to do so without asking here first.

Your help is very much appreciated.
