Reconnect fails after losing connection to MPD.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch server.py
2. Open the client on the browser
3. Restart MPD (i.e. /etc/rc.d/mpd restart)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: the server reconnects succesfully and the UI is functional again. 
(and everything is a bed of roses :P)

The server detects the disconnection and tries to reconnect. But it fails and 
an exception is thrown.

After this point the UI is no longer usable.

Stack trace:

Presumably the 1s sleep is not enough and there's only one attempt to reconnect.
