Description
Haiku Nightly hrev53962 x86_64:
Restarting the Media Server while MediaPlayer is playing a video will cause media player to become a "zombie" program. The user is able to close the frozen media player window but the MediaPlayer process will remain active. Docker will show MediaPlayer in its tray. The user can not start a new media player instance until the zombie process is killed.
How to reproduce:
1) play a video with MediaPlayer
2) restart the Media Server while MediaPlayer is playing the video
3) Close the frozen MediaPlayer window
4) MediaPlayer will remain active as a zombie / dead process
5) use a terminal to kill the process
