Was due to issuing emms-player-started on every playback-restart, fixed here:

Found that this can also happen if both these are true:

 - Track is an url.
 - It's not the only track in the emms playlist.

Due to the same emms-player-started change, should be fixed by the same
commit as above.
Might fix issue in your case too, if cause is the same.

If still happens, would help greatly if you can post the log or maybe
more details on specific sequence of actions and tracks involved
(so that I can try to reproduce it here).
