I experience the same problem and have monitored output with --debug
There may well be two issues here.
In my environment, I have highly variable bandwidth.
When bandwidth drops below that needed to maintain the stream rate, once
the buffer has been exhausted, the player pauses the stream and tries to
refill the buffer.
Sometimes the buffer gets up to 99.0% and then just stays there,
eventually the stream drops out. That behaviour may well be a bug, as
my network doesn't stop altogether, but what comes through to banshee
does stop.
The problem could be substantially mitigated if the buffer size were
configurable.

Title:
banshee unable to stream audio for more than a few minutes
Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: banshee
I like to listen to various one hour long music podcasts from dance
tunes radio. From their RSS feed I get the URL to a podcast and then
in banshee Open Location and paste it in. Banshee will start playing
the podcast but after anywhere from one to twenty minutes will
suddenly stop. The screen will show it buffering and stuck, for
example right now at 9%. The play pause button also changes to the
green play icon. If I use wget against the podcast then it downloads
just fine. An example feed is http://blog.dance-
tunes.com/sensation/Sensation_Podcast.xml
(No I don't want to do RSS feed subscription within banshee - I just
want it to play URLs reliably.)
