I've been using synchronised players for years but only stumbled upon
this recently. In this example there are 3 synched players, 2 Radios and
one Touch. The Radios are both on standby, the Touch is playing. If I
now turn off one of the Radios entirely by long press on the power
button the Touch stops playing and can not be convinced to start again
for a good while. I looks like LMS can't distinguish pressing the power
button on the Radio briefly - thus turning the Radio on - from a long
press shutting the Radio down.

In the server log it looks like this (full log attached below):

--------------------

A bit later, restarting playback fails because the player that is now
off won't start playing

--------------------

I suspect this is not intended? Synching is fairly robust against
switching players to/from standby and even just disconnecting the power
but a proper shutdown doesn't work? Shouldn't LMS detect the missing
player?
