Hamish,
I've just cracked the freezing problem, so you only need to look at the

Hi Terry,
Can't recall if you've tried this, but what if you replace the call to
mpg123 with a call to echo or similar, just to narrow down whether it
might be mpg123 that's causing the issue.

Probably not in fact. I only posted that there because it related to the
