Comment (by nephele):

 No, It should attempt to establsish a connection again, with a backing off
 timeout, and then quit.

 On what grounds does this not make sense? it is not the place of
 MediaPlayer to enforce whether a daemon is running or not, it is the one
 of launch_roster, MediaPlayer should never attempt to track or launch
 servers on it's own.

 (On a similar note media_addon_server should be brought under supervision
 of launch_roster too)
