Avoid playing the same song 2x in a row. 4 is probably a good threshold.

Display will show "PulseAudio server connection failure: Connection refused" when the VLC instance is created and when songs are played. It doesn't seem to affect the actual sound as that works fine, but I'd rather not have unexplained errors. Need to find out what is causing this and fix it.

Look at switching from RPi.GPIO to gpizero library to make things a little more readable and easy to use.

When playing Intermission, songs should continue to play randomly until the STOP is pressed. This allows the operator to walk away and leave the box running during longer intermissions (eg resurfacing).

Getting very crazy repeat rate on some songs.

Right now a song will play but the hockeybox still needs the STOP button to be pressed even if the song has finished.
