[Icecast] question re metadata

hi,

I am just experimenting with the Icecast2 admin function, allowing
metadata updates of the song title through appending a url . The example
in the docs looks like this:
http://192.168.1.10:8000/admin/metadata?mount=/mystream&mode=updinfo&song=ACDC+Back+In+Black

I do this and I get a response:
"Metadata update successful"

When I look at the admin interface I can see the song title has
changed...however the information in the player client (xmms) doesnt get
updated...am I misunderstanding what this function should do or is there
something I am not doing correctly?

Thanks in advance for any help
