[Icecast] <on-connect> / <on-disconnect> not working

[Jack Elliott]

Following. I've also not gotten <on-connect> / <on-disconnect> to launch 
a script that sends me a notification email. The script is located at 
/home/my_username/bin

The script runs from command line.

         <on-connect>/home/my_username/bin/email_onconnect.sh</on-connect>
         <on-disconnect>/home/my_username/bin/email_ondisconnect.sh</on-disconnect>

It is intended to run when a remote source client connects.

Is it possible that by having a fallback-mount (pointing to a local mp3) 
in the mountpoint "blocks" <on-connect>? IOW, because there is always a 
source client connected, either the fallback or a remote source client, 
there is no connecting event to trigger the command?

Thank you!
