That's just a matter of luck...
It's a system bug (existing since at least PPC2000...), where programs can't do any workaround.
The problem is this: When the system is powered on (or rather resumed - there is no "power off" on PPCs, only standby), WM resumes the running applications at once, and parallel to this it initializes the drivers. Due to this, an application might access a sound driver or storage card while it's not initialized. This leads to all these troubles. I have no clue why Windows Mobile doesn't wait with resuming the programs until the system's in a stable state like all desktop Windows versions are doing... Maybe we're lucky with WM2005...
An additional problem is that there's no way for a program to recognize if the standby mode is entered (i.e. "power off"). So I can't stop playback on power off. And the few ways to realize the power on will work only when it's too late...
btw: If the sleep timer from MortPlayer is used, the playback will be stopped first, and then resumed from this point if the playback is started by the alarm clock or manually.
