Well... I just find that mp3 streams work just as fine. Most likely a kernel thing, then.

The traffic in question may be local data transfer or (mostly large) downloads. The same happens to local audio streams managed by pulseaudio. A data transfer starts and the stream very much immediately cuts out. Typically, rhythmbox will pops up a dialog saying "server does not support seeking". I can usually resume playback but during longer data transfers/downloads, it will frequently cut out again. I have tried replacing the onboard audio chip with a discrete ASUS DX card. This does not make any difference. What does work is manually restricting download speeds using a download manager. However,, not all network traffic is controlled by such a manager. Something trivial - say, installing a firefox or a gnome-shell plug-in - has been enough for an audio stream to die instantly.
