When a receiver is detached from a device, the play mode is set to pmNone (which is 0). My guess would be that the "DiscontinuityDetected: triggering soft start" is generated by the output device, and that causes the transfer mode to be stoped and restarted. Maybe the output device chokes on something in the TS stream?
