Polling continues after channel closes #73

When a channel is setup with persistant or simple polling closes the address that was specified for polling continues to be polled.

Additionally: If a single channel is setup with (for example) 10 second polling interval, the polling often occours twice (within a 0.5 second seperation) every 10 seconds.

After more investigation it appears that two polling requests are created when the channel is setup, one of those responds to changes made through set_channel_options.

The other polling request does not respond to and changes and also continues to poll after the channel is closed.
