Whenever I exit XBMC and try to stream from Netflix, Amazon or Plex I get error messages that it cannot play. I have to force close XBMC for anything else to work. This is the 2nd device that has done this. Is anyone else having this issue and is there a fix?

I sometimes get this like once or twice a week. when it happens, I run es task manager and kill spmc/xbmc if it's running, and kill any other running apps that aren't being used. this seems to fix it.

although I think it really only happens when, instead of quitting xbmc with the xbmc-bottom-left-power-button-thing, I press the remote's home button and skip right to the home page.
