Music player suffle mode is not sufflling songs

I have this a lot since display service and reflash of 1.0.8.19.

sdcard has about 20 gigs of music. I select all songs and give media player a few minutes to 'load' all of them and then I select suffle mode playback.

After a while the suffle mode seems to get stuck on an artist or album or playlist. Just had an hour of Metallica Death Magnetic. I can't believe I was so lucky with randomness.

Pressing pause on music player cover does not help, but pressing next button cures this and real random playback continues.

Music Music/Media player suffle mode stops sufflling songslists m3u playlist files in "All Songs" view

Update: yes, indeed Media player lists m3u playlist files in "All Songs" view so suffling into one of them feels weird since a full album is played.
