[RWP] Listening to a selected area of a track

[Scott Chesworth]

How strange, that checkbox does the job here when making selections.
Got a feeling I checked something else to make it happen, but for the
life of me I can't think what at the moment.

Play skipping selection sounds mega useful. I'll definitely find a
home for that.
