Attempted several times and I cannot get it to work.  Looking for confirmation that it is a bug.

this works:
xbmc.executeJSONRPC('{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Player.SetSubtitle","params":{"playerid":%d,"subtitle":%d,"enable":true},"id":2}' %(_player_id, _preferred_subtitle_index))

this does not:
xbmc.executeJSONRPC('{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Player.SetSubtitle","params":{"playerid":%d,"subtitle":%d,"enable":false},"id":2}' %(_player_id, _preferred_subtitle_index))

Thanks!  I had read that post earlier and have implemented a similar workaround.  I am looking for confirmation that there is indeed a bug such that I can open one on github - if permitted.
