The pcp-streamer.tcz in the 32bit pcp7 main repo is an old version 1.01. The issue started after a change in lms flac stream handling and is fixed in version 1.04 by completely removing '-c 1' from init.d/streamer. I'm currently chasing a problem trying to uploading the updated extension to the picoreplayer main repository. If you switch to the picoreplayer mirror repository and then upgrade the pcp-streamer.tcz extension v1.04 will be installed.
