Zap timer fails to change channel when in media player

If a zap timer starts when playing a recording or media file in the media player (from live TV, MEDIA, navigate to recording or media file, OK), the currently playing file is stopped and the media player exits to live TV, but the channel selected is the channel that was playing when the media player/media browser started, not the channel in the zap timer.

This has a similar cause to Bug #481.

Replication steps

Create a zap timer for a few minutes in the future for a channel other than the one currently showing in live TV.

Return to live TV, then MEDIA, to enter the media browser, navigate to media file or recording, OK to start playing in the media player.

Leave the file playing until the timer starts.

When the timer starts, the media player exits to live TV, but the channel shown is the one that was on live TV before the media browser started, not the channel in the zap timer.
