[Pkg-mpd-maintainers] Bug#902428: sonata freezes if started while it's already running

[cacatoes at tuxfamily.org]

Package: sonata
Version: 1.7~b1-2

Hello,

I have mpd running on another computer, local network.

I start sonata, it runs fine.
$ sonata
See sonata_start_1.log.

Opening a new terminal.
Starting sonata while the other instance is already running.
See sonata_start_2.log.
The already running instance becomes unresponsive.
The second attempt does nothing and returns to shell.

Only option is to kill the first instance of sonata, then restart it.
