Further testing shows that this bug occurs when the randomly selected track comes from a part of the NP list that has not yet loaded, resulting in the portion of the NP list that is closest to the NP track displaying.

Until we fix the root cause (slow loading of the NP list), a possible solution would be to somehow indicate that the track is contained within a section of the NP list that hasn't yet loaded. e.g. display 'Loading...' at the bottom of the NP list, and show a greyed out 'Playing' indicator next to that.

Edit: even better alternative might be to show 'Loading...' at the bottom of the playlist, and then show the name of the currently playing track (but without the #) with the Now Playing indicator next to it (only if it is in the portion of the playlist that hasn't yet loaded).

Current temporary solution:
If current track has "incorrect" position -> display 'Loading...' at the bottom of the NP list(above miniplayer).
When all tracks before current are loaded-> current track is displayed and "loading message" is hided.

Fixed in build 232.
