Why would it be ignored?

 - user is playing music
 - mpris plugin activates
 - presence is [online - "Some Song"]
 - user goes away
 - autoaway plugin activates
 - presence is [away - "I am not here right now"]
 - user comes 
 - auto away plugin deactivates
 - presence gets set to that of the mpris plugin [online - "Some song"]

I can imagine a bug in which a track change whilst away sets you to [away - 
"Some song"] when you come back; but this patch won't fix that, and that's not 
this flickering you describe.
