PLAYPT3 seems to stop randomly #79

Thought I would have a play with PLAYPT3 on my latest game, and the song seems to stop at random time intervals, even without any program loaded or running. Currently using system V0.33 and plusBASIC v0.22x

Emulator, hardware, or both?
Is there a specific .pt3 file this is happening with?
Does it stop entirely, or pause then continue/restart?
After it stops will RESUME PT3 cause it to continue where it left off?

Real hardware
Seems like any PT3 (I have tried half a dozen so far)
Yes, it stops entirely
RESUMEPT3 starts the tune from the beginning (although its seems to do that even if you use stoptp3)

Example files that ended abruptly: Crazy.pt3 and termnatr.pt3. Loaded both files into Vortex Tracker in Windows. Verified that when played on Aq+, songs ended at actual end point of file.

Resolution: PLAY PT3 working correctly, PT3 files may be corrupted.
