Hi Romaric, I have (finally) tested your script, and I confirm the surprising behavior on the SVN version. There are essentially two mechanisms in liquidsoap that "replay" metadata. I had in mind the low-level one, but I forgot the specific mechanism attached to switching operators which seems to be the cause of your problem as far as my tests showed.
In a nutshell, good news: just pass replay_metadata=false to your fallback. Let me develop a bit. The replay_metadata mechanism has been setup to avoid surprises. Suppose you're switch (track insensitively) back and forth between two playlists. Older versions of liquidsoap would not replay any metadata, i.e. you could starts song A of playlist X, see its metadata, switch to song B of list Y, see its metadata, come back to A, without any metadata notification. This was unwanted for many users. I think it would make sense to refine the replay_metadata behavior to not add old metadata when the source produces new ones. That way, we might get a behavior that's always good, and get rid of the replay_metadata parameter which everybody forgot.
