Yes, you're right. As I said I hadn't tried it, but I've been playing
around and it doesn't works.
playlist.once does exactly what you said, plays all the files, but doesn't
trigger on the next hour. And the solution you propose is only valid if you
know exactly how many files each playlist has, and always have the same
number. Even then, since the file duration may not be the same ("the
playlist takes a random amount of time less than 60 minutes"), you could
run into problems to fire the talk playlist again on time.
Maybe something like the dynamic source creation example could work? Since
the op said that a cron job starts the next hour, it could be used to
create sucesive "playlist.once" sources that went over a fallback with the
music. It's a bit more complex, and probably there's a better solution, but
that's the only solution I can think of now.
