Hi Martin,

Yep, sounds exactly the same as the problem I'm having.

 From what Manuel has been saying, it seems its a bug in MPD rather than 
something m0n0wall related.

I'm going to send a message to the mpd mailing list first thing tomorrow 
morning, and see if anyone is aware of the bug there.

Cheers,
Steven
