I've been having trouble with iTunes not playing previews for a while now.

When I first open the iTunes store, I can click on any song or album and play the 30sec preview fine. The trouble begins when I navigate away from the page, for example, if I click on an album under the "Listeners also bought" heading. The album I click will appear, and I can play it's samples fine, but if I click the "Back" button to go to the previous album I was sampling, the buttons to preview no longer work. I click them, and I can see they've been clicked (they turn a darker shade of blue), but nothing plays and nothing buffers. It's like they're clickable, but don't do anything.

I end up having to click on the album title to refresh the page, and they work fine.

I have installed iTunes 10.4, but it was happening with 10.3 too. It's become really annoying.

Another thing that happens and seems to be related is that when I play samples and they end after the 30sec, the stop button remains visible, as if it's still playing. This will happen even if I click another sample from the same album to the point where every track could have the little blue stop button beside it when they should just have the track number.

Can anyone help?
Thanks.
