Sorry, I didn't see this before replying. My response did not take any of this into account. I'm left wondering: "Where are you calling next_playlist()?" "What do you mean by 'freezes'?" If you are calling next_playlist from an interrupt handler and if, by 'freezes', you mean 'seems to stop handling interrupts', then this could just be another manifestation of the same issue. Otherwise, I'm less sure.
