[Bug 303905] [NEW] radio streams continue to play when x server is reset

[TWO]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gecko-mediaplayer

Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 8.10 with all updates as of 1st December 2008.

Packages:
gecko-mediaplayer 0.7.0-1ubuntu2
gnome-mplayer 0.7.0ubuntu1
mplayer 2:1.0rc2-0ubuntu17
firefox: 3.0.4+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1

If one happens to reset the X server system via the ctrl + alt +
backspace command whilst one is listening to radio streams (which I
presume are windows media format), the sound continues to play during
the reset process and beyond completing log-in back into the system.

The problem is that even when the Firefox session is restored after
logging in, it attempts to open new streaming windows as opposed to the
ones that were open in the previous session and it remains impossible to
stop the already running streams without killing the 'mplayer' processes
that are running in the System Monitor.

I would expect that the streams would stop with resetting the server, or
at least for the stream controls provided by gecko-mediaplayer/mplayer
to be restored.

To reproduce, install gecko-mediaplayer and open up any radio stream
(maybe of any file format, but in this case Windows Media) and then
reset the X server system via the ctrl + alt + backspace shortcut.
