When Winamp is connected, you need to select it as a player from the
dropdown on the top right of your SqueezeCenter web interface and then
select the music you want to play. In other words, Winamp just listens
to the stream; you have to use the SC web interface to control what is
playing. Seems more confusing than it actually is when I try to explain
it early in the morning, but hope this helps.
