Just and update... this appears to be a legit bug, I just don't know why it is inconsistent. Shortly after my last post, I just flashed my phone and reinstalled Slingplayer. That fixed the problem.
But I just got a new T-mobile Dash as a warranty replacement, and installed Slingplayer mobile. It has the same problem!
One other piece of info, if I hold down select in full screen mode after attempting to bring up the favorites bar, it brings up whatever my first favorite it (by default volume, but I tried chaning it as a test).
I'll probably flash my phone...again... and hope that fixes it, but this is a legit repeatable bug.

In full screen mode... holding down select when the message is there brings up the volume control but that's it.
