MPEG DASH Live playback on Chromecast pauses after a few seconds

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Cast the following Live MPEG-DASH video using a Sender App & Custom Receiver 
App (https://github.com/googlecast/CastReferencePlayer) to Chromecast :
http://vm2.dashif.org/livesim-dev/segtimeline_1/testpic_2s/Manifest.mpd

2.Observe that Video pauses after a few seconds of playback with buffering 
indication

3. Chromecast receiver console log continuously displays the following message :

media_player.js:22  [ 12.134s] [goog.net.XhrIo] Opening Xhr [GET 
http://vm2.dashif.org/livesim-dev/segtimeline_1/testpic_2s/Manifest.mpd -1]
media_player.js:22  [ 12.137s] [goog.net.XhrIo] Will abort after 30000ms if 
incomplete, xhr2 false [GET 
http://vm2.dashif.org/livesim-dev/segtimeline_1/testpic_2s/Manifest.mpd -1]

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
If we play the same link on MPEG-DASH reference player, there is no such issue. 
Playback continues uninterrupted.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
My Sender is Chrome Browser on PC. 
Receiver is Custom receiver available at 
https://github.com/googlecast/CastReferencePlayer

Please provide any additional information below.
Similar issue has been logged for HLS playback - Issue 646, but there seems to 
be no resolution so far.
I've attached Receiver Console logs taken during two tests.
