Dbus Mpris interface - playback status incorrect after calling Next or Previous

When the user is playing a track and subsequently changes track via the dbus interface, the player emits a PropertiesChanged signal which sets PlaybackStatus to Stopped. However, the new track is playing and there is no additional PropertiesChanged signal to reset the PlaybackStatus signal to Playing.

Any clients listening for those signals therefore incorrectly show the player as being in a stopped state.
