Not sure if you are talking about an AAC stream (ADTS format) or AAC
podcast (MPEG4).  MPEG4 AAC podcast have particular format difficulties
and LMS just does enough to stream them.

Not sure why you bring mplayer into this - it is not part of LMS.  I
mentioned it just to confirm the underlying issue with a non LMS system.
I also mentioned when I increase the cache (i.e use the mplayer -cache
command line option) podcast plays OK.  I think (would need to be
confirmed)  LMS player cache slowly gets depleted and so it stops.
Mplayer with no cache stops after 1 min.  Mplayer with a small cache
which is not depleted plays OK.  

Usually sites which configure the servers in this way do it consciously
to reduce network load/costs  (i.e avoid users streaming, keeping number
of network connection to a minimum which would otherwise block access to
the site).
