I'm not sure if this is 'the bug', but I got an answer from the person
that initiated the SAP stream yesterdam.

He was setting up a miniSAP server (VLC) to announce a session via SDR.
This appeared to work too good. Problem was in the announcement
interval. The documentation said that the announcement interval should
be provided in seconds, while the sourcecode would have a
usleep(interval) so in microseconds.
