I'm running standard 7.3 SqueezeCenter on an HP MediaSmart running
Windows Home Server outputting to up to 5 players, which are always
sync'd together.
SB3 ethernet to router
SB3 ethernet over power
2 * reciever via ethernet over power
1 * Boom wireless
controlled by an SBC (mostly but occasionally IPeng app, IR or web).

Roughly, each room has the Squeezebox, powered amp and ethernet over
power all plugged into one 4 gang extension lead. I switch the wall
socket off when not using a room, to power down all 3 devices. I've
stopped using the 'Player Off' option as this obviously doesn't switch
off the other two devices and is a pfaff (on SBC: choose player,
reconnect, switch off then choose original player and reconnect, iPeng
is better at this but is not often running)

The squeezeboxes disappear from the web interface quite quickly but
often (I think if they have ever been selected by the controller) they
persist on the controller for hours afterwards. 

The controller will even allow such 'ghost players' to be selected but
obviously nothing happens (though volume changes are implemented when
that player is next powered up).

Other times the controller will sit showing the rotating circles saying
'connecting to player'. This will last several minutes but can be quit
via Back/Left arrow on SBC. This will leave the home menu with two
options 'Settings' or 'Choose Player'. 'Choose Player' will still list
the ghost player.

If a real player is selected and 'Settings'/'Synchronize' are selected,
then there is no mention of the 'Ghost player'.

Power cycling the SBC removes all 'ghost players'.

Has anyone else seen this? have any suggestions, I can't find anything
in the wiki or forums.
