I followed the design/implementation of the media player widget including handling the cases where the user leaves my widget but the media keeps playing.  One thing needed for that is a second snippet showing that my widget is playing media.

My problem goes like this:

Start widget one, play media,
Press 'widgets key' on remote control (home in the simulator)
I see the dock, and media from widget one continues to play.
I Hit left/right until I get to widget two
I see widget two showing it's now playing snippet

I would expect that only widget one would show a now playing snippet.  What have I done wrong, or left out to make widget two claim to be playing when actually widget one is?  Luckily (?) I wrote both widgets (based very heavily on the media player sample).  Is this a bug specific to running source widgets in a simulator?

Thanks!
