Short burst of silence are usually an indication that the BBC dropped
packets and predominantly happens on live streams and not on "Listen
Again".  

>From observation this seems to happen around busy hours but also
possibly when BBC is doing something to their network / server farm -
so no problems can be heard for a while and then for a few weeks the
problems happens and then goes away again.

The fact that your problem also occurred on RealPlayer makes me believe
that this is the problem and it is not necessarily PCI related.

That said, I know that mplayer has provoked strange network interface
problems on Windows on what seems to be perfect working interfaces. 
These problems were cured by an updated network drivers - you may have
come across the same sort of problem only in the the Linux environment
as I think in Windows it is the driver may set up the PCI data.
