picoreplayer - squeezelite - gets stuck when trying to play a broken radio station

I realized a fault in pCP-Squeezlite. My favourite local radio station has changed its stream url but TuneIn refused to fix it (another question why). https://tunein.com/radio/909-Jazzy-Rdi-s87189/
If I accidentally open this station the the system gets stuck. The menu is responsive, I can select another station but it never starts playing. Only system reboot recovers.

I assume it should be more robust. Connection issue may happen any time.
