The bug you mention is I think covered by this: Voice still sometimes eats itself after stopping playback. Unlike the earlier case, this doesn't cause a hang, and playing music fixes it. May happen again at the next stop. -- JensArnold - 26 Apr 2006 It might be worth expanding this to note that it usually only happens after the playlist has ended.
