Truncation of stories and hourly news

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Play hourly news
2. Or play playlist

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to listen to the whole story for each story. Instead, my stories are 
cut short almost systematicly, unless sometimes I fiddle with the application 
while I listen.
