I changed from Kubuntu on a wired network connection to the same box (an Acer Aspire Revo) using wifi and had the same problem. The restart command solved the problem for me. I looked at the /etc/init.d file, hoping that bum might help retime the initialisation. In the end, I added the restart command to the KDE Autostart menu in System Settings/Startup Shutdown by popping the command into a script file called 'squeezeboxserver.sh'. As I am using the Logitech Media Server 7.7.1, I needed to change the command, appropriately. By disabling kdewallet, the wifi connection starts up without a password and I set Session Management/Default Leave option to 'Turn Off Computer'. This way I can use the server computer in headless mode. Turning it on automatically logs into Kubuntu, a wifi connection and Logitech Media Server. A brief operation of the power button shuts it down after 30 seconds.
