 When playing sound over network and changing server ip address.

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. start playing sounds to server that uses wlan connection to lan.
 2. Plug in ethnernet cable to server machine causing m-dns to prefer
 ethernet connection.

 Result is that pulseaudio doesn't keep connection working over still open
 wlan connection.

 Possible solution:

 - Make sure that once opened pulseaudio connection keeps using same
 routing to server

 - Make pulseaudio to reconnect to server using new prefered address and
 continue playback.

 In my option 2nd solution would be better because this would allow
 scenario when server is unplugged from ethernet but still accessible using
 wlan.
