It does not appear to be the file itself as once I have pulled the unit from the cradle a couple of times, it will play it fine.
The playlist has never exhibited this problem either and I have never had this experience in the house.

It is like it is skipping and I can hear the drive seeking but I have not switched on the Icon as yet. I will try.
