The problem here was......two copies of squeezelite running on the same
machine. Which is pretty much what LMS is trying to tell me with that
error message.
I didn't realise squeezelite is also installed as a service, running as
the root user. As the root user it can't talk to pulseaudio, and so I
can't see it pavucontrol. I run it manually as my ordinary user, which
can talk to pulseaudio. They confuse the server, hence the track
progress bar regularly being wrong, and the jumping on to the next track
unexpectedly. Sometimes, the service crashes, leaving the copy I started
working absolutely fine, until I happen to reboot the machine and the
service starts again.
What a ballache this was!
