I honestly don't remember how the looping mechanism deals with buffer 
queues, to be honest  :-)   It might not work at all.

One possible alternative would be to just keep feeding the buffer queue 
the one buffer that needs to be looped, until it's time to play a new 
transition.  This would likely be cleaner than either trying to loop the 
last buffer, or stopping and starting the source.
