The WMA BBC streams work OK for me and they play each time.  I only get
48kbps and IIRC from a different network route than UK listeners who
should be getting the 128kbps streams from the same URLs.  Over the
summer BBC changed from two groups of URLs (UK & non-UK) to using the
same URL and doing service selection (e.g. 48kbps / 128kbps) in their
network.

The most common cause of many of the symptoms is a network issue
especially the 10% buffering means that the player has contacted the
network station and has received some data from the station but flow of
data has stalled.

One the BBC app is loaded then SBS has the BBC WMA URLs stored
internally and does not go near MySB except if the cached BBC WMA URLs
have expired.  SO your problem sounds like the WMA URLs have been
retrieved from MySB but BBC (or a company which assists such as akamai)
are slow in responding,  ISP is traffic shaping or some other
congestion.

As a test when a BBC station is playing - save it as a Favorite. Then
see if you get same problem when playing the Favorite.  Wait 5 mins for
cache entries to expire before testing the Favorite as that should be
worst delays.
