Yes, that does sound like the the stream ending and restarting for the next programme (its usually a few seconds before the actual audio ends for the programme. It should be seamless, but there sometimes can be a delay. As mentioned, I've noticed it a couple of times on my setup that but it is a glitch for me sometimes but not a long pause. Your server should usually do it all quickly enough after ending of one programme and the start of another. Just a thought, you don't by chance have crossfade turned on in the settings? I should probably disable crossfade for BBC Sounds in the plugin.
