I've committed a patch in r12127 avoiding the registration of a timeout function for the sake of killing the standalone player. It fixes the crashes for me. The worst effect you may see is a 0.1 second sleep when leaving page in case the standalone player gets stuck.
If it's confirmed to fix other's crashes (bwy?) and introduce no problems for others I'd clean it up to avoid allocation of space for a now useless integer.
