What happens when it fails? Aren't you prompted to enter a new
password?

IMO, the bug is filed for the wrong thing. A user should not have to
tell the player to "forget" its settings and start over. As you say in
the bug description,  most intelligent devices figures out the
authentication protocol on their own. The newer Squeezebox players
supposedly also do this, but it may only be during initial setup. You'd
think that failing authentication would be enough to goose the player
into attempting to figure out the protocol once again.

I'd be willing to bet that there are simpler workarounds. For example,
maybe try changing the network type to ethernet, then back to wireless.
Or try connecting to a different wireless network (if there happens to
be one nearby), then when it fails switch back to the old one. Not
obvious, but it would beat doing a factory reset.
