Bug Description
Using negative transition time, the newtrack seeks to the position in the prerole, immediately before play.
This is somehow unpredictable. A proper cued track position is lost.
With positive transition time, it is possible to cue a track before it starts.

Solving this for all possible use cases would be a major refactoring and a mass of new preference options, because the use cases are petty unclear/
It work already good for the two most common use-cases are:
* Crossfade -> works as expected
* CD mode, with a set-able pause time -> works as expected.
But CD mode has some issues in corner cases:
1. Not predictable as it could be because track is auto-cued after play is enabled.
2. A cued track is discarded
3. Fade now is not working
I think for 1.12 it is best to solve them with a minimum effort, focusing only some use cases.
1. can be fixed by cueing th track just after loading, overriding THE cue. This way it guarantees CD mode, but the user has the option to recue the track if required.
2. If a track is cued, it is a hint that pure CD mode is not desired, so it sound reasonable to fade the new track from cue after the previous track has stopped. In this case we have no pause since it is now used to fade in.
3. The is an extra bug I can't find. In this case it is most likely that the user wants to cross fade, so it sounds reasonable to momentary switch to crossfade mode.
Any thoughts?
